Just one request from this old Perl hack: please make it easier to learn than Ancient Perl. If you need to be an expert on Vanilla Perl to be able to "get" Modern Perl, then it's going to have a hard time getting traction. Like those Java web frameworks that you needed to be a JSP guru to be able to grok. Oh well, back to my usual Ancient Perl hacking...
