magazine, although I can't really tell you the title; I don't read
Chinese. I think it might be something like "Programmer Editor" roughly,
[2]issue 2007.11. It took me a long time to find that issue online; I
just clicked links until I got to a page that showed magazine covers and
matched those up to the paper copy I have. I don't remember which article
they published, but it might be from my [3]"What's In That Scalar"
article on Perl.com, which was originally an article in [4]The Perl
Review.
On blog.csdn.net, I also found [5]"brian's Guide to Solving Any Perl
Problem" translated to Chinese (and I'd like to put a link on [6]my
personal web page that says "in chinese" in chinese. How do I do that?)"

| WoC TODO Management System |

As you probably know, [0]Vienna.pm decided to fund various Perl
activities in the [1]Winter of Code. One item on our list is to fund a
[2]Management System for TODO test bounties.
We got several interesting submissions, but we had to choose one...
The proposal from Matt S Trout / [3]Shadowcat convinced us. The technical
part looks very promising (and we're honoured by a core Catalyst
developer coding an app for us), but the social aspects of his proposal
is what set it apart from the rest:
Shadowcat would like to defer the bounty to fund additional Catalyst or
DBIC related WoC projects. This means we get twice the value for our
(your!) money. Additionally, they want to put the app in the Reaction
repository under a perl license to serve as an example of Reaction
development. Which makes this effort even better, because good, real-live
example apps are very valuable when learning a new technology.
Matt plans to implement the system over Christmas, so if everything works
out as planned we can start with the [4]TODO test bounties in Jannuary.
Thanks to all the sponsors and attendents of [5]YAPC::Europe 2007 who
made it possible for Vienna.pm to fund this and other projects!

Alberto Simões posted up an [0]interesting benchmark illustrating that
~~, the new smart match operator in 5.10, outperforms both grep and
List::Util::first() in the "is X in this list" role.
Here are my results:
