A question which nobody asked, I presume? I think we heard enough from packaging folks that a new dependency is unwelcome. Also we heard from no regular/high-value reviewers that they feel comfortable reviewing additions in Ruby. So at least for now, the conclusion is to take approach #1, i.e. somebody who finds "related" a good addition rewrites it in Perl to promote it out of contrib/ once the design issues settle (of course it is still a possibility that no such volunteer appears). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
