<div dir="ltr">Thanks Nathan :-)<div><br></div><div>That's fantastic that your company doesn't compel its employees to refrain from open source contributions. Very cool. It's also fascinating that you are using Moops, which is extremely transformative imo. It's so called sugar really makes programming in Perl even more awesome, to an extent that I couldn't describe at length without some good preparation. When I first used it, it felt like what it must feel to step into a high performance car for the first time and try out 'ludacris mode'. You folks are using some pretty hot technologies, which one could call very bleeding edge in comparison to what many other companies are doing. It sounds like lots of fun.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">-- <div>Tommy Butler</div></div></div></div>
