From will at coleda.com Thu Sep 7 10:59:23 2006 From: will at coleda.com (Will Coleda) Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2006 13:59:23 -0400 Subject: [albany-pm] So, what's new? Message-ID: <16D73E2F-A556-4052-A68F-232788D65711@coleda.com> My work has been focused more on J2ME than perl lately, though I've been keeping up with (and contributing to) parrot development (including JSON, tcl, and APL implementations) as time permits. I know a few of us went to YAPC::NA (I gave a presentation on APL, which isn't very perlish either. =-), anyone make it to OSCON? Anything to report? Been reading up on someone's efforts to port CGI to perl6, and how the new language makes some things much clearer and cleaner. First post at: http://pugs.blogs.com/pugs/2006/09/improving_cgipm.html Finally, anyone interested in contributing to parrot but not sure where to start, there's a list of "cage cleaning" tasks that provide (hopefully) small or at least focused tasks for people to work on. Good intro. Feel free to join us on #parrot on irc.perl.org for more information: Check out: http://www.parrotcode.org/cage-cleaners/ http://www.parrotcode.org/cage-cleaners/todo.html http://xrl.us/owsd (Link to rt.perl.org) [ a list of open CAGE tickets ] Regards. -- Will "Coke" Coleda will at coleda.com
