G'day Moosers, I'm giving at talk at http://linux.conf.au/ in two weeks time on cool things that people may have missed in Perl. I'm expecting an audience of somewhere between 100-300 people, most of whom I don't expect will have only minimal Perl experience.
One of the many technologies I'll be talking about is Moose, and my main goal in showing it is to try and dispel the myth that Perl has to be ugly, and that Object Oriented Perl has to be a pain in the arse. With that in mind, is there anything in particular that I should be showing off but which I may have missed? Feel free to suggest the obvious here, but be aware that anything I show off needs to be accessible to "end users" of the language, and I won't be able to go into anything in too much depth. Caelum and gphat on #moose have already mentioned MooseX::Method::Signatures and MooseX::Declare, both of which provide a shinier interface, and hence suit my goals nicely.
