PSC #135 2024-02-08
This week, the three of us:

* noted that `use VERSION` restrictions have had mostly positive responses
* thought that `Data::Printer` can't go in core as-is, but there's a use case for a debugging helper, some of which might be hidden in D:P's core
* discussed adding a `builtin::numify` function (and the corresponding OP in core)
* quickly reviewed the PPCs currently being implemented:
* we should ping the implementors of PPC0014 (English names) and PPC0021 (optional chaining)
* PPC0022 (meta) has an implementation on CPAN
* PPC0019 (qt strings) implementation is in progress, but unlikely to be done by 5.40
* PPC0013 (overload in join) is currently stalled

+1 would like to have it in 5.40 as with stringify
