The Perl Foundation is looking at giving some grants ranging from $500 to
$3000 in August 2008.
In the past, we've supported Adam Kennedy's PPI and Strawberry Perl,
Nicholas Clark's work on Perl internals, Jouke Visser's pVoice, Chris
Dolan on Perl::Critic and many others (just check
http://www.perlfoundation.org/grants for more references).
You don't have to have a large, complex, or lengthy project. You don't
even have to be a Perl master or guru. If you have a good idea and the
means and ability to accomplish it, we want to hear from you!
Do you have something that could benefit the Perl community but just need
that little extra help? Submit a grant proposal by July 31.
As a general rule, a properly formatted grant proposal is more likely to
be approved if it meets the following criteria
* It has widespread benefit to the Perl community or a large segment
of it.
* We have reasons to believe that you can accomplish your goals.
* We can afford it.
To submit a proposal see the guidelines at
http://www.perlfoundation.org/how_to_write_a_proposal and TPF rules of
operation at http://www.perlfoundation.org/rules_of_operation. Then send
your proposal to tpf-proposals @ perl-foundation.org.
On August 1st, proposals will be made available publicly (on this blog)
for public discussion, as it happened in the previous round. So, please
make it clear in your proposal if it should not be public.
Note that accepted but not funded proposals in the previous round do not
need to be re-submitted.

| Searching Perl Mailing Lists with MarkMail |

A couple of months ago, MarkLogic imported a bunch of Perl mailing lists
into their [0]MarkMail service. After only a couple of minutes playing
with the service, I really liked it. Instead of making a query, getting
results, then trying again, MarkMail lets me start with a broad topic and
refine the search by looking at intermediate results.
I wanted to find out more. For [1]The Perl Review, I interviewed Jason
Hunter, the Principal Technologist at Mark Logic, to find out more. I
also made a [2]screencast of me using the service (as well as pounding my
laptop with a mallet).
You'll see that Jason listed some corpus sizes for different subjects.
Although Perl has half a million messages, so other subjects are huge
too. We can boost Perl's numbers by getting more lists into MarkMail.
Although MarkMail initially imported 75 of the Perl lists, they want to
import more. In the interview, Jason has instructions on what to do.
Basically, you write to them and tell them to import your list. If you
have dead, historical lists, they can import those archives too. Easy
peasy.

It looks like my [0]Guide to Solving Any Perl Problem is being
incrementally [1]translated into german through a wiki. If you have the
skills, maybe you can help them finish it.
