hi all,

i proposed a topic for the next meeting (feb 12) and it is a group project which should be very educational for all who participate. i have a module which i use but it should be on cpan. it needs plenty of work to get there. here is a short list of things to do:

pod (has none)
tests (has none)
design improvements
code review and improvements
cpan support

the current code base is at:

http://git.shadowcat.co.uk/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=urisagit/CMS-Simple.git;a=summary

the module is CMS::Simple and it generates a set of static pages (html or anything else) based on templates (it uses Template::Simple). it has some interesting (at least to me) design ideas and it is used to build my perlhunter.com site.

at the meeting, i will go over its design principles, do some code review (yes, you can attend and rip MY code to shreds! please do! :), and layout the to do list in more detail. one early issue is getting the initial module setup for cpan using either the venerable h2xs or one of the Module::Start* modules on cpan.

there is stuff to be done for all skill levels and interests. you can join later if you want as we will be using this list and git to manage the project. in fact if someone here is a solid git user, i would like them to be the source manager for this. my git is minimal and i will surely screw it up with multiple authors working on this.

so you have a week to review the raw code and chat on the list. i will write up a general design email soon as well covering the key points.

thanx,

uri
