[yapc] Perl 5: Today, Tomorrow, and Christmas

[YAPC::NA Director]

Ricardo Signes will give a talk at YAPC::NA_2012 that he describes as:
     Year after year, Perl continues its steady march towards greater and
     greater Perlishness. Ancient mistakes are slowly sloughed off and
     long dreamed-of features are added. If Perl is evolving, toward what?
     Is it just a random collection of mutations, as desperate Perl
     hackers struggle to remain fit enough to survive, or is there an
     intelligent design behind the way Perl is changing?
     In this session, Ricardo Signes (rjbs), the Perl 5 project lead, will
     discuss the future of the Perl language, the guiding principles of
     its ongoing design, and the specific changes toward which the Perl 5
     Porters are working. It will also describe the way Perl 5 development
     really happens, how that is changing, and what we might want it to
     become.
