What a fun challenge! You can download the Perl starter package and
post it and be ranked all within 15 minutes. ?:)

There have been 63 Perl submissions so far:
? http://aichallenge.org/language_profile.php?language=Perl

But Perl doesn't hold the top 444 spots yet. Please forward to your
groups to get more Perl people involved. ?:)

Thanks,

Mi sembra un po' "overkill" per la nostra lista a basso traffico, ma
se qualcuno ? interessato per i propri moduli... :-)

Ciao,

Hi all,

Ever since I've been involved in Perl Mongers, I've been trying to
register domains under the .pm registration. .pm is the Saint Pierre
and Miquelon Islands - a French territory just off the coast of
Newfoundland. Registrations are therefore controlled by AFNIC, the
French domain registry and, until now, they haven't been taking any
registrations at all.

But I've just read that they are opening registrations to all
residents of the EU (and Switzerland).

See http://www.afnic.fr/en/about-afnic/news/general-news/5060/show/6-december-2011-opening-to-europe-of-the-fr-and-other-tlds-operated-by-afnic-2.html

The domain company I use, Gandi, have some kind of pre-sale on and I
think I've just managed to buy london.pm (although I guess I could
lose it if someone with a better claim comes along).

But this opens up a whole range of possibilities. In particular Perl
Monger groups and Perl modules can now have their own domains.

Not sure what you're all going to do with this knowledge. But have fun :)

Dave...

Hi,

this mail is for the non-English Perl Monger groups.
Another one, for the English speaking groups will follow soon.

The GCI - Google Code In - has started 2 days ago.
The Perl Foundation participates through the volunteer work
Florian Ragwitz (rafl) and Paul Johnson ( pjcj ).

The dead-line for the first round was extended to 27 November
and in these 2 days I think I know what is missing.
I'd like to call for your help.


Some of the tasks are translation related such as
translating
?- Mojolicious::Guides::FAQ
?- The Moose website
?- OpenWebMail
?- The GUI of Padre, the Perl IDE
?- Several screencasts I made and put on YouTube

Having translations in your language can be of a lot of
help getting people started. They will have to learn English
eventually but its a nice help.

In order to have translations in your language we first need
mentors who speak your language fluently and who
would be ready to help a bit.

Once we have that we will also need students but as
I could see in these two days that's less of a problem.

We need mentors. If you think this is a good cause
Please forward this message to your Perl Monger group
(and maybe add a few sentences in your local languages :)
and kick their ass to sign up as mentors.

Here is the process:

1) Sign up as a mentor at
http://www.google-melange.com/gci/profile/mentor/google/gci2011

2) Join the #gci channel on irc.perl.org
If you don't have an IRC client you can follow this link:
http://wbe004.mibbit.com/?autoConnect=true&server=irc.perl.org&channel=%23gci&nick=

3) Talk to Paul Johnson ( pjcj ) or Florian Ragwitz ( rafl )
? ?who can invite ?you to the TPF program.

Let them know you are ready to mentor XYZ translations.
They will probably schedule a few translation tasks to your language
and when they need your help they will let you know.

Once there are a few tasks you can send out another call for students.

I think that's it.

If you'd like to get in the first round you have only 4 days for that.

regards
? Gabor
