Hi there!



A new subscriber of the Perl Weekly wrote me:



"I've used Perl for a while but I would love to be fluent in it. Please
let me know if you have any advice."



I think the best way is to work on projects and if you can find nice people
who have time to comment on your work then ask them. Depending on your
level you might want to try Exercism ( https://exercism.org/ ) that has a
Perl track for practice and a built-in system for asking for and getting
feedback on the specific exercises. Even better, once you did the exercises
you can become a mentor there helping others. That gives you another
opportunity to look at these problems and help other people like yourself.



You can participate in The Weekly Challenge (
https://theweeklychallenge.org/ ) run by Mohammad S. Anwar, the other
editor of the Perl Weekly.



Longer term I'd suggest to work on a real project.

Either create a project for yourself or you can start contributing to open
source projects (e.g. CPAN modules). I'd start trying to contribute to
active projects - so ones that saw a release recently. MetaCPAN has a page
showing recent CPAN releases ( https://metacpan.org/recent ) and the CPAN
Digger provides some analytics and suggestions for recent CPAN releases (
https://cpan-digger.perlmaven.com/recent ). You can also contributed to
MetaCPAN itself. This is also a nice way to contribute back to the Perl
community.



Finally, Happy Passover celebrating the freedom of Jews from slavery. Let
me wish to you the same we have been saying for hundreds of years at the
end of the Passover dinner:



Next year in Jerusalem!

Recently I decided to renew my efforts to get more sponsors via GitHub
Sponsors. In order to understand how to do it better I am going to write
a series of articles. This is the first one. At one point I'd also like
to feature the Perl-developers who could be supported this way. So far I
encountered two people: magnus woldrich (
https://github.com/sponsors/trapd00r ) and Dave Cross (
https://github.com/sponsors/davorg ) and myself (
https://github.com/sponsors/szabgab/ ). I'd like to ask you to 1) Add
some sponsorship to these two people so when I write about them there
will be a few sponsors already. 2) Let me know if you know about any
other Perl-developer who is accepting sponsorships via GitHub Sponsors.

Depending on your<BR>level you might want to try Exercism ( https://exercism.org/ ) that has a<BR>Perl track for practice and a built-in system for asking for and getting<BR>feedback on the specific exercises. Even better, once you did the exercises<BR>you can become a mentor there helping others.
