If you only read one blog post about the QAH, it should probably be this one, which tries to give a flavour of what happened.

by Ricardo Signes (RJBS)

Rik's report on the QAH.

by Joel Berger (JBERGER)

Joel's report on what he did at the QAH.

by Andreas König (ANDK)

As ever, Andreas seemed to be everywhere with everyone at the QAH. This is his report.

by Kenichi Ishigaki (ISHIGAKI)

Ishigaki-san continued his work from last year to port PAUSE over to Plack. He also provided a bridge to some Japanese Perl hackers, including MAKAMAKA.

Colin's report on the work he did at the QAH, related to PAUSE permissions.

by Olaf Alders (OALDERS)

There was a whole MetaCPAN section at the QAH this year, which grew as the weekend went on. This is Olaf's summary of what they got done.

by Steffen Schwigon (SCHWIGON)

Just one of Steffen's reports on the QAH (see them all here). He worked on benchmarking of Perl 5, amongst other things.

by Sawyer X (XSAWYERX)

This was Sawyer's first QAH, and given that he was strapped down and made to take on the Pumpking role for Perl 5, he may not go again!

by Matthew Horsfall (WOLFSAGE)

Matt's blog post.

by Philippe Bruhat (BOOK)

He didn't wear the expected number of pink shirts at the QA Hackathon, but I did see at least one. He's a friend, which is why I'm allowed to mock him rather than talk about the useful things he did.

by Oriol Soriano (UREE)

This year we tried an experiment: Oriol came as The QAH Intern. He joined a number of discussions, but joined Barbie and Doug Bell working on CPAN Testers for most of the time. I hope we get as good an intern next year!

by Miguel Prz (NICEPERL)

Miguel Prz (NICEPERL)'s regular lists: Great modules released last week; MetaCPAN weekly report; StackOverflow Perl report.

by Neil Bowers (NEILB)

The module list permissions in PAUSE (the 'm' case in 06perms.txt) have now all been removed, simplifying the permissions model for PAUSE.

by Sawyer X (XSAWYERX)

Two weekly summaries for the price of one!

by Flávio Glock (FGLOCK)

An update from Flávio on his Perl 5 to Java compiler.

by Jonathan Worthington (JONATHAN)

It seems there really is no such thing as too much information about call frames!

by Zoffix Znet (ZOFFIX)

Zoffix compares Perl's S/// operator to Perl's s/// relative.

by Charlie Gonzalez (ITCHARLIE)

Charlie has a tip for people wanting to do some Perl 6 on Windows.

by Zoffix Znet (ZOFFIX)

Zoffix shows some of the ways you can extend core types in Perl 6.

by Joel Berger (JBERGER)

One of the big topics at the QAH was Test2, and the way forward. This is a gnarly issue, and no decision was ever going to satisfy everyone. But the Test2 group, led by Chad Granum, worked hard to find the best solution. Joel summarises the story so far.

by David Golden (DAGOLDEN)

If you use Perl and MongoDB, David need your help: please fill in the MongoDB developer experience survey.

by Dave Cross (DAVECROSS)

Dave wants to know what training courses people are interested in for YAPC::EU this year.

This year, Austrian and Swiss Perl Monger groups join forces to host the first Alpine Perl Workshop, taking place at the University of Innsbruck on 2nd and 3rd September 2016 (that’s a week after YAPC::Europe). They're looking for talks on Perl and other interesting things.

by Moritz Lenz (MORITZ)

Moritz continues his series on automating deployments.

by Ron Savage (RSAVAGE)

Ron Savage shares how he releases his CPAN distributions.

by Gabor Szabo (SZABGAB)

by Reini Urban (RURBAN)

I thought twice about including this, since (a) it's not constructive, (b) contains personal attacks, and (c) has a number of inaccuracies. But Perl Weekly seeks to reflect what's being discussed in the world of Perl, so here it is. Reini lists a number of core modules he claims are no longer maintained. But at the QA Hackathon I know that JSON::PP, Pod::Simple, ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Devel::PPPort, and Test-Simple were all worked on, and possibly more.
