Hi there,
A belated, Happy Birthday to the creator of
Perl. May the joy that you have spread in the past come
back to you on this day. Just for record, the birthday was on 27th
September.
Do you use homebrew?
brain d foy did all the hard work to get
homebrew up to the latest Perl v5.38. If
you are keen to know the details then please do checkout the pull request (
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/145939 ).
Olaf Alders recently shared his cool creation, is: an
inspector for your environment ( https://github.com/oalders/is ). I am sure
for all System Administrators out there, it would be very
handy.
I am not sure, if you noticed this but Perl Mongers (
https://perlmonks.org/ ) certificate expired few days ago. I only noticed
as one of the contributor to The Weekly Challenge (
https://theweeklychallenge.org ) shared link to the site. The very next
day, I saw post by Olaf Alders on Twitter talking about it
and sharing the tool ( https://www.prettygoodping.com ) that can help avoid
such incident in future. The certificate has now been restored.
Do you know the current maintainer of CPAN Testers server?
I saw Facebook post (
https://www.facebook.com/groups/perlcommunity/permalink/1538251906982430 )
by Mark Keating just few days ago. I remember,
Doug Bell helped many years ago when I was playing daily
CPAN upload games. He gave me access to deal with the
issues I was facing at the time. I just hope, it stays live and kicking. It
is the second best thing for us after MetaCPAN. If you are
interested to sponsor the MetaCPAN then you now have
plenty of different options. Please find out more about it in the official
announcement ( https://opencollective.com/metacpan-core ) page.
For all newbies wanted to explore Perl, please checkout
the Perl Programming Course (
https://www.i-programmer.info/news/222-perl/16624-learn-perl-with-freecodec
amp.html ) by FreeCodeCamp. Thank you Nikos
Vaggalis for sharing this with us.
The annual event, Hacktoberfest 2023 is back. If you
contribute to opensource projects on GitHub then I would
highly recommend to take part in the event. For more details, please
checkout the announcement ( https://hacktoberfest.com ).
Enjoy rest of the newsletter.

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/145939 ).
Olaf Alders recently shared his cool creation, is: an
inspector for your environment ( https://github.com/oalders/is ). I am sure
for all System Administrators out there, it would be very
handy.
I am not sure, if you noticed this but Perl Mongers (
https://perlmonks.org/ ) certificate expired few days ago. I only noticed
as one of the contributor to The Weekly Challenge (
https://theweeklychallenge.org ) shared link to the site. The very next
day, I saw post by Olaf Alders on Twitter talking about it
and sharing the tool ( https://www.prettygoodping.com ) that can help avoid
such incident in future. The certificate has now been restored.
Do you know the current maintainer of CPAN Testers server?
I saw Facebook post (
https://www.facebook.com/groups/perlcommunity/permalink/1538251906982430 )
by Mark Keating just few days ago. I remember,
Doug Bell helped many years ago when I was playing daily
CPAN upload games. He gave me access to deal with the
issues I was facing at the time. I just hope, it stays live and kicking. It
is the second best thing for us after MetaCPAN. If you are
interested to sponsor the MetaCPAN then you now have
plenty of different options. Please find out more about it in the official
announcement ( https://opencollective.com/metacpan-core ) page.
For all newbies wanted to explore Perl, please checkout
the Perl Programming Course (
https://www.i-programmer.info/news/222-perl/16624-learn-perl-with-freecodec
amp.html ) by FreeCodeCamp. Thank you Nikos
Vaggalis for sharing this with us.
The annual event, Hacktoberfest 2023 is back. If you
contribute to opensource projects on GitHub then I would
highly recommend to take part in the event. For more details, please
