Our VMS guy for Test::Harness 3 appears to have gone AWOL. Can anyone
VMS-savvy explain how to at least run tests in VMS? We're kind of stuck
here and we can't even think about TH3 without some confidence that we
don't break VMS.

I'm pleased at announce that [0]CPAN::Reporter 1.00 has been released and
should soon be appearing on a CPAN mirror near you. Now, anyone with CPAN
and a relatively modern version of Perl can contribute to [1]CPAN Testers.

[0]APPP is organizing a Catalyst training event in Braga, Portugal,
November the 2nd and 3rd.

[1]Catalyst Days is a two day training event for Perl programmers who
don't know much (or nothing at all) about [2]Catalyst or even MVC
frameworks in general, with lectures in the mornings and exercises in the
afternoons.

[3]Novis, [4]Optimus, [5]Clix, [6]log, [7]excentric and the [8]Department
of Informatics of the University of Minho are sponsoring, making the
venue available and even going as far as providing lunch for the
attendees during the two days.
