by Karen Pauley

Various people are restarting their Ironman blogging this year; Karen has set herself a goal of blogging about Perl at least once a month, and this is her first. TL;DR: she's busy, and gets a lot of email to deal with!

David (aka tinypig) announced script for managing files. Old-timers are probably reading clpm as comp.lang.perl.modules or misc.

Rob shows how you can create one-time user session tokens in Bedrock, for example when someone has forgotten their password.

by Steven Haryanto (SHARYANTO)

Perlancar has started blogging on his own site, and has startd with a series handling command-line arguments. Read part 2 after this first part on Getopt::Long.

by Ron Savage (RSAVAGE)

Ron is trying to build up a list of all 'table rendering packages'. Please let him know if he's missed any. He needs them for the SEE ALSO section of his new Text::Table::Manifold module.

by Flávio Glock (FGLOCK)

An update from Flávio on perlito, a perl5 to perl6 compiler.

Mark's notes after attending Larry Wall's talk at FOSDEM. Apparently the videos of talks will go online soon, presumably at video.fosdem.org.

The latest news from Perl 6 (apart from, you know, that talk). MoraVM got 20% faster,

by Curtis 'Ovid' Poe (OVID)

Ovid shared the slides for his FOSDEM talk ahead of time.

by E. Choroba (CHOROBA)

Choroba describes his efforts with Net::HTTP::Spore. Not everyone who got a dzil-based dist was happy, but Choroba didn't have any problem.

Garu describes his thoughts and process approaching Fuse, his assignment for January, resulting in 4 pull requests.

Lance shares his work on String::Random: cleaning up the output of perlcritic -1 and extending the module so users can provide their own random number generator.

by Neil Bowers (NEILB)

A first quick analysis on the impact of the Pull Request challenge. In short, a the most CPAN-related pull requests ever, by a comfortable margin.

by Neil Bowers (NEILB)

Some ruminating on what MetaCPAN's favorites mean, some statistics on how they've been bestowed to date, and how they're being factoring into the scoring of dists for the Pull Request Challenge.

by David Golden (DAGOLDEN)

A while back David presented a way to migrate tickets from RT to github issues. Here he describes a more complete solution, which is available on github.

Frew shares his experiences and thoughts using Docker for deployment, having used it for testing for nearly a year. I've no experience with Docker, ******************************[1]: you'll just have to decide for yourself.

by Mark Fowler (MARKF)

Jeff Thalhammer gave a talk on Perl::Critic to Albany Perl Mongers. Here Mark shares what he took away from the talk, the biggest win of which was learning about using the only option in a .perlcriticrc file.

by Andrew Solomon (ILLY)

Andrew shows two of the ways you might compare the boolean true-or-false'ness of two scalars in Perl. Hopefully most of the time readability would win out :-)

An update on the Perl::Lint project, which was funded in early 2014.

by Makoto Nozaki

Two weeks ago we linked to the proposal for the Ado web framework. It wasn't funded, primarily because there's already a lot of choice in Perl web frameworks, so it wasn't clear this was the best use of the funds ($4500 was requested).

Sydney.PM are having a tech talk session on Tuesday 10th February, from 6 to 9:30pm.
