Hello, world! This is Simon Cozens, www.perl.com managing editor,
bringing you the latest goings on from the world of Perl and our
own site.

* Perl at large.

Last week, the Perl 6 design team was posed some questions by the
readers of use.perl.org; here's the answers from Larry, Damian,
Dan, Jeff and Gnat:

Conference season is drawing near, with YAPC at the end
of June and TPC at the end of July. Make sure you're booked on
one or both!

* What's new on www.perl.com?

Before we look at this week's articles, I'm afraid I have to let
you know that perl.com is going to be introducing megabanners from
this week on. Those of you who read slashdot will know that
megabanners are advertising banners which are much larger than the
ones we've been using so far. Obviously, we don't like doing this
to you, and Dave Sims and I have fought for a long time to keep
unnecessary ads off of perl.com. Unfortunately, we've had to face
commercial realities, and come to terms with the fact that
megabanners have become necessary. My apologies.

So you're now ready to start using mod_perl, but where are you
going to find a mod_perl-enabled server? This weeks article
discusses mod_perl-friendly ISPs, co-location, and other options
to get you up and running with mod_perl.
