You also may be interested in this summary of our involvement last year [1]. Our application will be submitted by the end of this week. Please join us in getting prepared for this year. There is a page for possible mentors to volunteer [2]* as well as a page for project ideas [3]. If you would like to help with the wiki, our main GSoC page [4] is the best place to start.

I haven't, but it looks rather similar to another Perl framework I've been looking at, and play to play with soon, Mojolicious::Lite. In fact, I just came across mention that Mojolicious::Lite was apparently intended as a Dancer clone that was built on top of Mojo and Mojolicious.

Like this: :!perl assignment_6 It will show the output and ask you to press enter to get back to editing. You can also run the current file by using "%" as your file name. :!perl % I find this especially useful with the "-c" option which checks to see if the perl file can run (though, not whether it will run correctly): :!perl -c % That's a nice quick check for typos.
