Approximately 30 tickets were worked on, and 10 patches were applied.
- "perl #120384":https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=120384 This month I re-worked Data::Dumper's pure-perl and XS output of hash keys to be consistent with both each other, and with the Quotekeys configuration.
- "perl #82948":https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=82948 Also on Data::Dumper, I modified the code that dumps qr// objects to output them as qr/original re/flags rather than the qr/(?^flags:original re)/ form that tends to expand each time it is serialized.
