This is a list of people whose goal for future Perl Core development is "/usr/bin/perl must not break the world's programs outside defined deprecation policies".
The above is a rejection of changes like the proposal to change perl defaults in perl 7/8/* for /usr/bin/perl without gating them behind a use v*;. For more detail: - Dan Book has written in great detail here. - DaveM has also written a very clear description.
People might be mistakenly on this list. It is editorialized by myself, Mithaldu, and i might be wrong. I put people on here by observing their communications around this matter. Only people with a heavy check mark (✔️) have explicitly agreed.
Please let me know if you think someone you know would appreciate being included.
Also, please let me know if you'd wish to be removed, or think someone here would wish to be removed.
