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.

t23connect.t fails
Gentle persons: I just tried to build HTTP::Proxy on two different linux systems, one running Red Hat Fedora 7 and the other running Ubuntu 8.04. In both cases, t23connect.t fails two subtests. http://www.cpantesters.org/show/HTTP-Proxy.html shows 73 "FAILs" versus 92 PASSes" reported for HTTP-Proxy 0.22. A quick check suggests all or nearly all of the reported fails also concern t23connect.t. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is the test itself malformed or is there truly a problem with connecting to a ssh server for half of us? Regards, Kent

Re: t23connect.t fails
It is an issue with the test script. I've fixed it in the development version, which is not on CPAN yet.

Re: t23connect.t fails
Thanks for the update. I was hoping that the issue was relatively benign and that someone else was attending to it so I could stay focussed on issues in my own code :-) More to the point, thanks for your contribution of HTTP::Proxy to CPAN!!!

Re: t23connect.t fails
By the way, I've put HTTP::Proxy 0.23 on CPAN last night, with some CONNECT improvement, and hopefully a version of t/23connect.t that will not stupidly fail. Thanks for the kind words.
