Hi,
APW - the Austrian Perl Workshop has ended and it created a flurry of Perl
6 related blog posts. I am not sure if the activity level of the Perl 6
developer was also substantially increased or not, but we, people who don't
follow Perl 6 that closely can suddenly see that things are happening.
That's great.
BTW how do you like the changes in the Perl Weekly? Do you see the images
on the right?
Enjoy your week! ~szabgab

A study of code abstraction
http://bit.ly/1nwFPJ0
A study of code abstraction: Modern developers are shielded from the inner
workings of computers and networks thanks to several layers of code
abstraction. We'll dig into those layers from a single line of Perl code,
down to the bytes that get produced at the bottom of the API stack. (PDF)
by Patrick Lambert (reddit ("http://bit.ly/1nwFPIX"))

Perl Maven Pro
The Perl Maven Pro ("http://perlmaven.com/pro") subscribers receive two new

screencasts:

The third and final part of the mini-series in which we tested random
numbers, abstracted out a testing function, and them moved it to a module
to be usable by anyone.
--------------
Test::Builder object
http://bit.ly/1rmjSHJ
Every example I see receives the singleton Test::Builder object in a
