How To Change This Document And Our Style

Non-policy changes, typos, wording, formatting and such, can be done by anyone.
Policy changes should be submitted as an issue.
Changes to .perlcritic and .perltidy can be done as pull requests.

Checking and Correcting Style

Anyone can correct the code to better match style.
Running ./Build tidy and ./Build critic will run perltidy and perlcritic respectively.

Testing

Tests should use Test::Most.
Tests should use perl5i::latest, not perl5i::2. This will make creating a new major version easier.
Tests should have a #! line.
