Rakudo (Perl 6 on Parrot) progress report (2008.07.01 0:59) - July 1, 2008

This is the third "monthly" report for my development grant from the Mozilla Foundation and The Perl Foundation. As regular readers will have surmised by now, the definition of "month" has been stretched a bit for a variety of reasons, but as this report and the other reports will show, it's not been a hindrance to our progress. To review, the primary goals of this grant are: To have a Perl 6 on Parrot implementation that supports commonly-used Perl 6 constructs; Improvements to the Perl 6...

European Perl Tour: Portugal (2008.07.01 0:33) - July 1, 2008

Now that YAPC::NA is over, I can start getting things off my to-do list.

Perl is great, but visiting new places and meeting new people is even better. Portugal was my last stop in Europe, right after Barcelona (which will be a different post), so I'm really starting at the end..

first impressions of dnd 4; part 4 (2008.07.01 0:09) - July 1, 2008

I skimmed both the DM&39;s Guide and the Monster Manual today. I&39;ve been really busy and I don&39;t think I&39;m going to give either one a really good read, although I read one or two chapters of the DMG in full.With regard to both books, I think they&39;re great improvements over the previous editions. The DM&39;s Guide is very much like the 3E &34;Dungeon Master&39;s Guide II,&34; which really blew me away when I first saw it. It&39;s sort of like the Pragmatic Programmer for Dungeon...

Speaker Mentor Program:Slideware (2008.06.30 21:47) - July 1, 2008

For the upcoming Pittsburgh Perl Workshop in Oct and YAPC::NA 2009 I want to offer a speaker mentor program. I really don't know how I am going to do this just yet, but one thing I know is, I will need is slideware suggestions for potential speakers. What do people like and why do they like it This is asked from the perspective of the speaker and as an audience member. Wikipedia has not let me down it does give me a decent start but I would like to see what the Perl community has...
