Uri,

That was a really funny read and something that probably should be
read. My philosophy of software is that what I am doing is no different
than carpentry or engine repair, just that it moves and is abstract,
but in the same way like furniture or engines, it must serve the user.
Mission creep be damned!

To: Brett Estrade <brett.estrade at gmail.com>


This weekend, we?ll begin emailing links to the videos from the *Winter
2024 Perl Community Conference*. Between that and the most recent *Summer
2025 Perl Community Conference*, we have nearly 30 videos to share.

These will be released first to this email list, followed by our other
channels, including the Perl Programmers Facebook Group.

A few days later, they will also be shared on the r/perlcommunity
<https://crm.acutisdata.com/sendy/l/R1c2W7fu5O0L2zKp34V3vQ/fW6m2wKF8RdRshfSk8gk4w/RiguZi7ygPMT4J1v7fcZkw>
subreddit.

*What can you do to help?* Please share this email and encourage your
fellow Perl enthusiasts to join our low-volume announcement list so they
can be among the first to access the videos.

To join, visit perlcommunity.org/science/#mailing_list
<https://crm.acutisdata.com/sendy/l/R1c2W7fu5O0L2zKp34V3vQ/BIFT892YLKYpUZ2rlXnHfsdw/RiguZi7ygPMT4J1v7fcZkw>
or use this direct signup link

Along with the video releases, we?ll soon announce the Call for
Participation for the December 2025 Perl Community Conference and provide
an update on Issue #2 of the *Science Perl Journal*,
<https://crm.acutisdata.com/sendy/l/R1c2W7fu5O0L2zKp34V3vQ/4wMUIV892892ZO892itI75bb4Cjg/RiguZi7ygPMT4J1v7fcZkw>
coming before December.

Finally, lots of good stuff has been happening behind the scenes. Amoung
the news above, we're also issuing official DOI numbers (and permalinks)
for our Science Perl Journal and the papers contained therein. Read more
