I know we just started this Daily News thing, but your News::Hound is headed out to The Perl Conference on Friday, and will be slow (at best) at getting to news updates this weekend, and probably for most of next week. I'll be at a ~&| family function for the weekend, and at The Perl Conference all next week.
The Good News is that I can update the page, when I get around to it, with pithy quotes and interesting goings-on from TPC Ground Zero. Stay tuned, and keep sending your news tips to news@perl.org.
