At YAPC::NA, [0]Alias challenged me to have a new release of Vanilla Perl
and an alpha release of Strawberry Perl out on Thursday during the
hackathon. Of course, when he said Thursday, he didn't realize that would
be Thursday of this week. The installer can be downloaded from
[1]vanillaperl.com.

Call for Participation
Please mark your calendars! The organizers of OSDC::Israel are glad to

There will be additional events such as tutorials and a Perl 6 hackathon
near the main conference; the exact schedule will be announced in the
next month or so.

[0]ajs writes "The Perl 6 development whirlwind that has seen the release
of a [1]new version of Pugs and the first release of v6.pm continues
apace. The latest tidbit is audreyt's posting on the Pugs blog of [2]the
Perl 6 CPAN stack diagram along with some interesting commentary on how
both Perl 5 and Perl 6 are expected to benefit from this."

| v6.pm rules |

v6.pm now has rule declarations. It still needs some additional work to
process parameters, etc. Then v6 will be able to compile it's own
grammar, and maybe it will be entirely rewritten in P6 (except for the
runtime modules).
Unfortunately, the build is currently broken in windows and osx - at
least for unexperienced users, it seems. I'm planning to add eval()
around the required binary modules, so that at least a subset of the
language can work without XS compilation.

| AJAX timelines and SVN::Web |

A day or so ago I started seeing references to [0]AJAX timelines, by
Simile in a few blogs.
Thinking that they looked rather interesting, I've taken a couple of
hours to integrate them in to SVN::Web.
The work's been carried out on [1]this branch, if you want to follow
along.
The code works well enough to draw a [2]scrollable timeline of Subversion
commits.
