Perl Weekly=20

Hi there,

Do you or your company sponsor Perl directly or
indirectly?


As we all know, The Perl and Raku Foundation (
https://www.perlfoundation.org ), is the parent organisation responsible
for the development of Perl and Raku
programming languages. They are also the single point of contact for any
donations, whether individual or corporate. Without a doubt they are doing
great service promoting Perl and Raku
programming languages. I have personally seen how they support annual
conferences around the globe.

Why am I talking about it today?

I run The Weekly Challenge ( https://theweeklychallenge.org ) project
primarily focus on Perl and Raku but open
to all programming languages. It was started on 25th March
2019
. It has been going on un-interrupted ever since, thanks to
the strong 350+ members of Team PWC. We
were lucky enough to have solo sponsor, Perl Careers ( https://perl.careers
) run by Peter Sergeant since July 2019
without break. Initially we had weekly prize sponsorship but later it was
changed to monthly sponsorship. The best part was, I didn't have to move a
finger to find the sponsor. Pete was generous enough to
come forward and continued supporting the project for such a long time.

Is it time to look for new sponsor?

Well, we are not expensive to sponsor, honestly speaking. The prize money
has been 50 USD since the beginning. Although I have been
looking for new sponsors for sometime but never done anything about it. It
is just not my cup of tea. Because of this, I put the code move on hold for
such a long time. Ideally I wanted to move the code base to pure
Perl solution instead of currently Hugo
which is based on Go. I also wanted to move away from
GitHub pages hosted solution to a proper hosted solution
that we can manage ourself. I could have requested TPRF
for financial help but again I am not competent enough to make formal
request. As we are growing very fast every week, it is getting out of hand
to manage the contributions by the team member. GitHub
takes lot longer to process the data as some of the team member complained
about it too. I wish we had our own repository to manage the contributions.

Any help or suggestions are most welcome.

Last but not the least, please do remember all those affected by the recent
conflicts in your daily prayer. Enjoy rest of the newsletter.

Issue #644 - 2023-11-27 - Perl Sponsor?



latest | https://perlweekly.com/archive">archive | edited by anwar.org/">Mohammad S. Anwar

wsletter on the web
, if you prefer.

=20


Hi there,


=20


Do you or your company sponsor Perl directly or indirectly?=


=20


As we all know, The Perl=
and Raku Foundation
, is the parent organisation responsible for the de=
velopment of Perl and Raku programming la=
nguages. They are also the single point of contact for any donations, wheth=
er individual or corporate. Without a doubt they are doing great service pr=
omoting Perl and Raku programming languag=
es. I have personally seen how they support annual conferences around the g=
lobe.


=20


Why am I talking about it today?


=20


I run The Weekly Challen=
ge
project primarily focus on Perl and Rakutrong> but open to all programming languages. It was started on 25t=
h March 2019
. It has been going on un-interrupted ever since, than=
ks to the strong 350+ members of Team PWC=
. We were lucky enough to have solo sponsor, s">Perl Careers run by Peter Sergeant since Ju=
ly 2019
without break. Initially we had weekly prize sponsorship b=
ut later it was changed to monthly sponsorship. The best part was, I didn't=
have to move a finger to find the sponsor. Pete was gener=
ous enough to come forward and continued supporting the project for such a =
long time.


=20


Is it time to look for new sponsor?


=20


Well, we are not expensive to sponsor, honestly speaking. The prize=
money has been 50 USD since the beginning. Although I hav=
e been looking for new sponsors for sometime but never done anything about =
it. It is just not my cup of tea. Because of this, I put the code move on h=
old for such a long time. Ideally I wanted to move the code base to pure trong>Perl
solution instead of currently Hugo whi=
ch is based on Go. I also wanted to move away from >GitHub pages hosted solution to a proper hosted solution that we =
can manage ourself. I could have requested TPRF for financ=
ial help but again I am not competent enough to make formal request. As we =
are growing very fast every week, it is getting out of hand to manage the c=
ontributions by the team member. GitHub takes lot longer t=
o process the data as some of the team member complained about it too. I wi=
sh we had our own repository to manage the contributions.


=20


Any help or suggestions are most welcome.


=20


Last but not the least, please do remember all those affected by th=
e recent conflicts in your daily prayer. Enjoy rest of the newsletter.

Hi there,

Do you or your company sponsor Perl directly or
indirectly?


As we all know, The Perl and Raku Foundation (
https://www.perlfoundation.org ), is the parent organisation responsible
for the development of Perl and Raku
programming languages. They are also the single point of contact for any
donations, whether individual or corporate. Without a doubt they are doing
great service promoting Perl and Raku
programming languages. I have personally seen how they support annual
conferences around the globe.

Why am I talking about it today?

I run The Weekly Challenge ( https://theweeklychallenge.org ) project
primarily focus on Perl and Raku but open
to all programming languages. It was started on 25th March
2019
. It has been going on un-interrupted ever since, thanks to
the strong 350+ members of Team PWC. We
were lucky enough to have solo sponsor, Perl Careers ( https://perl.careers
) run by Peter Sergeant since July 2019
without break. Initially we had weekly prize sponsorship but later it was
changed to monthly sponsorship. The best part was, I didn't have to move a
finger to find the sponsor. Pete was generous enough to
come forward and continued supporting the project for such a long time.

Is it time to look for new sponsor?

Well, we are not expensive to sponsor, honestly speaking. The prize money
has been 50 USD since the beginning. Although I have been
looking for new sponsors for sometime but never done anything about it. It
is just not my cup of tea. Because of this, I put the code move on hold for
such a long time. Ideally I wanted to move the code base to pure
Perl solution instead of currently Hugo
which is based on Go. I also wanted to move away from
GitHub pages hosted solution to a proper hosted solution
that we can manage ourself. I could have requested TPRF
for financial help but again I am not competent enough to make formal
request. As we are growing very fast every week, it is getting out of hand
to manage the contributions by the team member. GitHub
takes lot longer to process the data as some of the team member complained
about it too. I wish we had our own repository to manage the contributions.

Any help or suggestions are most welcome.

Last but not the least, please do remember all those affected by the recent
conflicts in your daily prayer. Enjoy rest of the newsletter.
