PTS Results
This is a page where attendees can keep a log of what they've done each day (and then hopefully write a blog post after the PTS has finished).

Thursday
Olaf
Rik
H.Merijn Brand (Tux)
- Fixed Test::Smoke to accept command-line arguments to Configure.
- Discussed dromedary use with Rik and Book
- Started builds of perl-5.28.2 on my HP-UX systems to distribute. Doing so surfaced a bug in blead that Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker (ilmari)++ promised to fix. I also created several tickets for modules that failed for various reasons not due to perl.
- Worked (with Aaron Crane (arc) on making metaconfig back in sync with blead. Thank you Aaron Crane (arc)!!!
Tina Müller (tinita)
- Implemented https://github.com/perlpunk/YAML-PP-p5/issues/11. Loading and dumping of perl objects now supports both tag styles !perl/type and !!perl/type. Now you can exchange pretty much every data between YAML.pm, YAML::XS, YAML::Syck and YAML::PP. Only typeglobs need to be implemented.
Nick Logan (ugexe)
- Refactor zef auto-update functionality to allow various forms of on/off switches.
- Discuss some best practices of developing a Perl 6 distribution with Elizabeth Mattijsen (liz) and Shoichi Kaji (skaji).
Friday

- Finished builds of perl-5.28.2 on my HP-UX systems and uploaded them for distribution. (and did a few PR's to CPAN modules)
- A few loose ends in blead after the Configure jobs of yesterday
- Dig into HP-UX blead Test::Smoke failures
- Test Devel::Cover with cperl for Paul Johnson (pjcj) and looked at XS coverage (fixed statement display)
- Test Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker (ilmari)'s array branch on HP-UX 11.11
Tina Müller (tinita)
- Implemented loading and dumping of binary data with the "!!binary" tag https://github.com/perlpunk/YAML-PP-p5/issues/10
