From a quick glance at some of the existing perl code in git, a lot of it continues to use "print STDERR" -- but then to be fair, a lot of the perl code also reads like it has been written by C programmers... While there's nothing wrong with using "print STDERR", it's probably wiser to transition this to using Carp in the long run -- it would decrease the round-trip time to debugging should there be a situation where that was needed, and hence I would recommend using "warn" for less-severe errors/debugging. -- Thomas Adam
