Re^2: Informal Poll: why aren't you using traits?

[Ovid]

Problems they solve/when to use them:

• Whenever you've duplicated behavior across unrelated classes.
• Any time you might think about MI and it's only for code reuse (in other words, the subclass is not a more specific type of a super class)
• Any time you might want a Java-style interface but you also want an implementation to go with that.
• Any time you might want to use mixins (have you ever considered exporting methods?)

As I said, I don't need them. But you may want to look at Class::Trait's documentation with an eye to making those points early. In particular I think that it is more important to be fast to explain what traits can do for you than to say what they are.
