Hi,
after the tons of articles we have seen in the previous few weeks, this
week was a bit quiet. Nevertheless you'll find a few interesting articles
and a couple of videos.
Enjoy!

GitTip profile of the week
Tadzik (Tadeusz Sośnierz)
http://bit.ly/1qjtyaA
Tadzik is a Perl 6 developer. A couple of weeks ago we mentioned the Space
Invaders ("http://bit.ly/SRXtZW") clone he wrote in Perl 6. It would be
great to encourage him to further work on that game, or to build more
games in Perl 6. BTW Yours truly interviewed ("http://bit.ly/10BhjUy")
him about a year ago.

Migrating Knotes data the hard way
http://bit.ly/1qjsljy
When upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04 Yanick found out that KDE's Knotes has
changed the format it was using to save notes and it could not upgrade
the files itself. No problem. Perl with the help of Yanick could solve
the problem. Code included.
