Hi. I've been learning gtk2-perl recently, and anyway, I've found some gaps in the documentation, which I'm sure will shock everyone here. :)

Where should I send suggestions for additions to the docs? My source files are currently full of comments which document the API... perhaps they might be better-off in a .pod ;)

that would be great!

we've traditionally taken patches on here on the list, but we actually have a bugzilla product on bugzilla.gnome.org ("gnome-perl"), which has been updated very recently so that we can use it now. that may make more sense.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=gnome-perl


for api documentation, we put the docs directly in the XS files, right above the functions they document, and use a custom documentation generator to create all of the pod files. there's a mini-language of special pod directives accepted by our generator; i don't know that it's documented, of course. there are plenty of examples in the code, though, and they should be rather self-explanatory (if not, just ask).
