I would recommend starting with MooseX::Declare instead of Moose if you are trying to upgrade your Perl, as Moose is great above standard Perl OO but doesn't go far enough by itself. Previously I found that MoooseX::Method::Signatures was very slow, so I ended up selecting Method::Signatures::Simple. Coupled together, you end up code that looks somewhere between Ruby and Java. It's not my first choice for a new project, but it's not a bad way to fixup an old but large codebase.
