Hi, This week we have quite a few posts including some that we have missed last week. Just one note to article authors: If you would like to remind us about your article the best way is to send us a message to editors@perlweekly.com or to Tweet to us including a link to your post. Making snide comments about the newsletter just because we have not included your article is not the way to make us happy. Even if you put a fat-smiley on your comment. (Luckily this rarely happens.) Thanks for reading my rant. Enjoy your week! Gabor Szabo |
