Hi there, this is a bit mixed edition. Ruth collected the articles, but I (Gabor) decided on the title and I am writing this intro as well. I also must apologize for the delay in sending out this edition, but I was on a flight from Sofia to Tel Aviv and apparently due to a 'navigation error' we first flew over Belgrade and then landed in Budapest. Then it took 2 hours to get on another plane and 3 more hours to arrive in Tel Aviv. Basically the pilot on the first plane got lost in the cloud. I think I should look for some cloud and Perl-related articles... Anyway, enjoy your week! ~ Gabor D Ruth Holloway |

Crowdfunding
|
by Gabor Szabo (SZABGAB) Last week I launched a new crowdfunding campaign to provide me with some time and encouragement to update the Perl Maven Tutorial. It had a very good start, but I'll need a lot more people to support it. If for nothing else, to see that you think it is valuable to you or to the Perl community in general. ~ Gabor |

Perl 6

Back in the day, the Wombles of Wimbledon collected rubbish. Nowadays, since the advent of motorised road sweepers, they’d be in need of a new profession. Perl Developer, perhaps? Our client is based in the heart of Wimbledon, under a mile away from the Common where the Wombles famously made their home. |

Have you ever worked for a company with a micromanagement style, where a boss was constantly breathing down your neck? Do you hate spending more time in meetings about product requirements than actually getting on with building the product? |
|
Ever find yourself wishing you could see meaningful impact on users from your work? Trapped in a company with long release cycles and dubious release dates? Wish your ideas for product improvement didn’t keep disappearing in to the Project Manager’s backlog? |
