REPOSITORY 

The code is available from our public git repository:

  git clone git://git.freeside.biz/Business-OnlinePayment.git

Or on the web:

  http://freeside.biz/gitweb/?p=Business-OnlinePayment.git

(ref.
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Business-OnlinePayment/OnlinePayment.pm#REPOSITORY)


I can mirror to github if you would find it helpful.  Currently we do 
that for our B:OP-using application itself, for corporate clients who 
can't easily open their firewall to our git server, but they, you know, 
pay us money, and I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that all current 
B:OP contributors are cool with organic self-hosted style git?  If not, 
let me know.

p.s. the github guys did have the best sound system as OSCON.  i could 
be bribed with some time to play on there.  just saying.  :)

Hey, I'm not standing in the way of progress.  Write code.  Or 
kickstarter or TPF grant us up some money and I'll throw some guys at it 
too, but otherwise I have more than enough work to do to keep everybody 
fed.  :)

(Speaking of which, if anyone is looking for telecommute, open-source 
work and is legal to work in the US [SSN or Tax ID/EIN], contact me 
off-list.)

Did some more research and talked to folks, I'm convinced.

Feel free to write B:OP::Gateway modules which use Moo.

Feel free to submit patches to the base B:OP class which use Moo (to 
make the code cleaner/shorter/better in some way, not gratuitously).  
The usual backwards-compatibility rules would apply for module authors 
and end-users (B:OP-using applications).  Also no Moo version newer than 
0.091011 needed for the next 4-5 years.
