I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

use 5.008

Hi David,

Is there a specific reason that Class::Meta requires perl 5.8? I have a system on 5.6.1 and I cannot upgrade it. I've simply removed the "use 5.008" line from Meta.pm and all seems well, but I'm waiting for some unexpected bug to pop up soon.

Thanks, Tim

Re: use 5.008
Guess not. I can change it. Will do so for the next release.

Re: use 5.008

I've just released Class::Meta 0.46. It now requires Perl 5.6.1 instead of Perl 5.8.0. I had to disable some tests for 5.6, though, because Carp doesn't support @CARP_NOT in perl 5.6. Everything should work fine, though. All tests passed for me. Perl 5.6.0 seems to be right out, though.

Enjoy,

Theory
