Had an idea for some non-work related perl code that would almost 
certainly have to be object oriented/class based.

I'd also like it to maybe be something to make open source for others to 
use. So, i would be looking for something that is kinda "core", 
considered the "gold standard" for doing oo perl, emphasis on 
"standard".

I confess, i have fallen out of touch with whatever is the latest and 
greatest for doing OO in perl. Last time I looked, it was moose. But now 
Raku is out, and i havent been following it at all.  I just havent had 
the time to code for fun like i used to. And while i use a LOT of perl 
at work, its always glue scripts tying unix commands together and 
parsing log files and such. Lots of regexes, zero classes.

I have written a lot of oo perl, but it was all blessed hash refs stuff, 
and thats just terrible.

Anyway, if someone could point me to whatever is the latest greatest, 
gold standard method for OO perl, i would appreciate it.

And if the answer is "use raku", then i may need a primer on raku, cause 
every time ive looked at raku, i get confused and go back to perl. Or 
maybe i need to stick with the best standard, but specifically for perl.

Any pointers would be appreciated
