in thread where to edit man pages for perl?

I would rather not get into it on perlmonks. Such discussions never go well.

    I just wanted to know because I am preparing a Perl course to be taught within the company I am working and I would like to avoid any embarrassment. I am working for an American company and they can have some weird views on what is offensive or not. But do send me a personal message if you'd rather not bring it out in the open.

    A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    Might as well, FWIW, any suggested change you make is public, and it will get discussed

    I found nothing in the tutorials with  use Regexp::Common qw /profanity/; but I did find these :)

      OK then. man perlpacktut uses "Ahmed's Camel Emporium" as an example and I suggest that be changed to "Zed's Camel Emporium".

        Hmm, I don't get it, I would think "Ahmed" is a common name in camel country -- Zed doesn't seem particularly related to camel geography

        I propose Larry
