Nor should it. A university course shouldn't cover every little-used module on the CPAN! > I suggested covering frameworks and a bit of Perl 6. Problem with that is that perl 6 doesn't exist yet (and so students can't go and play with it; but it would perhaps be useful to discuss why some of the new stuff in perl 6 is useful - and why other bits of it are rather silly). And - which frameworks? Either you merely skate over the surface of a few of them, doing nothing except to tell the students that frameworks W, X, Y and Z are available, or you look at one in some, but not enough, detail. -- David Cantrell | Nth greatest programmer in the world Perl: the only language that makes Welsh look acceptable _______________________________________________ BristolBathPM mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.bristolbath.org/mailman/listinfo/bristolbathpm
