Let's change that."

JPG?

That image has lots of JPG artifacts. A PNG (or even a GIF) would be better.

Of course, it's a great cause anyway.

That's not how to get people to do stuff acme, and you know it.

I'll pledge 50usd if they give us a PNG feed and publish the source

See ;-)

Well the source, in its ugly form, is located on our CVS server... I have allready been toasted for the jpg solution by the other cph mongers - png will be availble later today.

Great! Now I'll offer another 50USD to the fund for the first person to get Perl running on an X-Box...

Problems in Denmark. Or Brisbane. Or...whatever

Keep that YAS money flowing! I found out today that the organization no longer has funds to support Il Damian, and funds for El Sugalski will run out in another month. If YAS can't keep these folks working on Perl & Perl6, they'll have to get Real Jobs and it'll take all the longer for that Perl goodness to make it to a computer near you.

But again, just to repeat the important news there: YAS money to support Damian Conway has, as of today, run out.

If the Damian World Tour comes to a city near you, by all means throw some money in the guitar case to keep the show on the road. It's not for us, it's for the future generations that will look to Perl6 in awe. Doesn't anyone think of the children?
