>>I am puzzled by all these old-timers who feel the need to say they "aren't into Perl anymore." That's fine. I'm not into Windows anymore, but I don't go around telling everyone :) Some of them are language war trolls. The rest... well, read some _old_ Perl code from 1999 or so (Nagios, maybe?). :-) Modern Perl with the Perl 6 backports like Moose and other CPAN stuff is totally another thing. I don't really know if it works better for most people to treat your computer language like something extensible, that can grow -- but still force people to learn old cruft, to handle that? I know one thing: I love it, because it is fun. And I need that -- I hated my life when I worked for money in Java. Edit: Grammar.
