Hi,

I have a few questions about chapter 2:
- at the end of the chapter, you mention YAPE::Regex::Explain,
Regexp::Common, Regexp::English... Shouldn't you also mention
the very useful Regexp::Assemble?
- The regular expression engine in Perl 5.10 is going to change a lot...
Do you plan to talk about it? (You talked about defined-or in chapter 11)

Chapter 11:
- Phi is actually 1.618... So Phi => 1.62 sounds better (if you plan to
compute ratios with it).
- According to Module::CoreList, Getopt::Std and Getopt::Long were part
of Perl 5 since 1994-10-17 (i.e. Perl 5.000).

Also, please find attached a few diffs against r186.
