TODO list for Net::Ping (in case anyone is looking for things to do)
- More IPv6 support
Some options like IP_TOS and IP_TTL are not available on IPv6
- POD rewriting
Some things, such as the return from $p->ping(), are cryptic. The location of the
source is off as well.
- Device
Setting the device uses SO_BINDTODEVICE. This is Linux-only and should not work anywhere
else. I think deprecating this is probably the right thing to do.
-TOS
The incoming TOS value can be just about anything from my testing. This valid values are
supposed to be (in decimal) 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 assuming we aren't talking DS and ECN.
I don't know right now if this is a bug in Socket, Darwin (tesing on Mac OS X currently)
or if that's just the way it is. Time for some C level testing for this one.
P.S. TOS is IPv4 only.
- Tests
Nicholas Clark converted the tests to Test::More which is a good start. The tests need some
cleanup and modernizing. Below is the current test coverage when testing as root.

This needs to be quite a bit higher all around to make me comfortable with a refactor.
