I'm up for speaking.  My frequently used modules include log4perl
and Getopt::Declare.  I'm rather fond of Perl6::Export::Attrs too,
for those rare cases where I'm actually exporting (as opposed to
coding OO).  I'll probably think of more later.

PS:  Getopt::Declare is a weird one.  It's kind of a Damian thought
experiment gone horribly wrong, or horribly right, depending on how
you look at it... but it's definitely an instructive experiment to do.
