I had written: >[First of all (and this is not specifically targeted at Bart), the list has > started drifting too much into discussions of general Perl questions again. What I had not noticed was that Bart had *not* sent his "bug report" to the mailing list (His subject line looked like it came from the mailing list). I stand by my remark about sticking to MacPerl specific debates on the list, but I'd like to apologize to Bart for my mistaken assumption that he had sent his report to the list.
