| We've released the code used to run rt.cpan.org                    |

+--------------------------------------------------------------------+

As part of a recent project to modernize and improve rt.cpan.org, we took
the time to clean up and better abstract the various plugins we use on
the backend. We've also (finally) moved all the RT extensions that make
up the UI to a public SVN repository (svn://svn.bestpractical.com/).

Have you ever wanted to get involved in The Perl Foundation, but didn't
know how? Well, now's your chance. I'm pleased to announce open
self-nominations for the following TPF roles:
  * [0]Steering Committee Chair
  * [1]Conferences Committee Chair
  * [2]Public Relations

You can follow the links above to read descriptions of each of the
positions. If you think you're a good fit for one or more of them, send
me an email at cbrandt at perlfoundation dot org. I'll then invite you to
a dedicated wiki we have set up just for the election.

Once you join the wiki, you'll set up a page to post all of your
experience and answer the questions provided in each section above. The
wiki is private, but you'll be able to see the other candidate pages, and
they'll see yours.

The deadline to get all of your information in is midnight next Tuesday,
March 11. Our committees elect their members, so the Conferences
Committee will be voting on the CC chair and the Steering Committee will
vote on the chair and PR positions. After we have a chance to look over
everyone's information, we vote and select our newest members.

You only have a week, so don't wait too long. I look forward to hearing
from you.

+--------------------------------------------------------------------+

[0]As threatened earlier, I've written up [1]a patch to fix Cwd.pm in
perl so it will build in a Dreamhost account. Now you can upgrade to
5.8.8.

The issue is that Perl's own version of abs_path() didn't know how to
deal with a parent directory it didn't have read permissions on. On
Dreamhost, you can't read /home. The patch will eventually go into
PathTools.
