Does anyone have a list of the modules that Damian mentioned/used in his talk yesterday? I'd like to dig into them to understand what lies beneath & maybe even use them. A quick search on Google did not reveal anything.

Thanks John for the Toronto review. GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND. For those who haven't visited http://damian.conway.org/, the official description is In 2003 Damian arrived at the YAPC::NA conference only to be told that he had to give both keynotes, rather than just the one he had prepared. "Oh, and we need you to present the extra one this time tomorrow." Ever wondered what you'd get if you locked Damian in a hotel room for 24 hours with nothing but a perl interpreter, a deadline, and a dozen PowerBars? This talk reveals the ten terrifying answers. Tim Maher plugged SPUG edition (first PM rendition) as - "We'll be privileged to be the 2nd group on the planet to hear Damian's latest blockbuster talk, in the "Quantum Superpositions", "Life, the Universe, and Everything", and "Time::Space::Continuum" series. As usual, this will be a meeting you won't want to miss!" Toronto glossed this talk as 'a characteristic Damian "crazy talk"' and "This talk is one of Damian's "special" talks -- hyperkinetic and humorous while at the same time very technical and educational. " Buffalo.PM called it (in Toronto) "the (semi) insane talk" to distinguish it from "the (semi) serious talk" on Perl 6. A KW.PM member reviewed the NY.pm showing of Small Miracles as "I was able to catch Damian's Small Miracles talk on Tuesday in Manhattan(thanks to NY.PM). Its quite interesesting and definitely very entertaining. It gives a good explaination about what "Junctions" are among other things. It essentially covers 9-10 modules that he has written at some point or the other. No overlap between his two YAPC talks (other than the YAPC::Australia thing which is just a filler.)" I hear from Merlyn that it includes IO::Prompt and progress bars (probably Smart::Comments). -- Bill Sitting in the back of Damian's REGEX class... _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
