After more than 18 months of development, Perl-Critic
<http://search.cpan.org/dist/Perl-Critic> has reached
its first major release! Version 1.01 is now available
on a CPAN mirror near you. 

For those of you who aren't familiar with it,
Perl-Critic is a highly flexible static source code
analyzer (like lint, but for Perl code). It
automaticaly detects potential bugs, awkward
constructs and over-complicated code. Most of the
rules are based on Damian Conway's book "Perl Best
Practices". 

No matter what your personal preferences are,
Perl-Critic can help you and your team write more
consistent, robust, and maintainable code. Numerous
open-source projects and commercial development shops
have adopted Perl-Critic as an integral part of their
development process. And at my $work, we use
Perl-Critic as a tool for coaching junior developers. 

So I invite all of you to give Perl-Critic a shot. If
you want to see what it does without installing
anything, try using the Perl-Critic web service at
http://perlcritic.com.
