Hi there!
I hope you'll have a few minutes between two World Cup games to check out
some of the articles.
A new version of Perl has been released. Go play with that.
Also today is the date that search.cpan.org ( http://search.cpan.org/ )
will shut down and redirect everything to MetaCPAN.org. Let's thank Graham
Barr fnd all the other people who helped him building it and maintaining it
for almost 20 years.
Let's also wish good luck to the developers and maintainers of MetaCPAN who
will carry now all the traffic. Give them a hand improving and supporting
this application!
Enjoy your week!

perldoc.pl - A new way to perldoc
http://blogs.perl.org/users/grinnz/2018/06/perldocpl---a-new-way-to-perldoc.html
A new site perldoc.pl ( https://perldoc.pl/ ) to show the documentation of
Perl. Very nice! I'd love it to be part of MetaCPAN though as I don't
think people (especially beginners) should need to know what is part of
Perl and what is an external module.

Articles
Marpa and combinator parsing
http://jeffreykegler.github.io/Ocean-of-Awareness-blog/individual/2018/05/combinator.html
In the post on procedural parsing, the subparsers were like combinators, in
that they could be called recursively, so that a parse could be built up
from components. Like combinators, each child could return, not just a
parse, but a set of parses. And, as in combinators, once a child
combinator returned its value, the parent parser could resume parsing at
a location specified by the child combinator.

Parsing left recursions
http://jeffreykegler.github.io/Ocean-of-Awareness-blog/individual/2018/05/lrecursion.html
A lot has been written about parsing left recursion. Unfortunately, much of
it simply adds to the mystery. In this post, I hope to frame the subject
clearly and briefly.
