We're pleased to announce that we've selected Jonathan Worthington as a recipient of a Perl 6 microgrant. Jonathan is one of the top contributors to Rakudo Perl 6 and has been contributing to Parrot since 2003. The grant will be for travel and accommodation to the French Perl Workshop and the Nordic Perl Workshop. Jonathan will speak at both workshops on topics including the Rakudo Perl 6 implementation, Perl and Perl 6 as languages for academic use and the Perl 6 type system.
Please join us in wishing him the best of luck with his project. We're really looking forward to seeing the details of his talks. If you're interested in submitting a Perl 6 microgrant proposal, you can find details here.

Congrats and Good Luck to Jonathan! I've met him at the Israeli Perl Workshop, where he has also given one or two presentations. He seemed like a very nice and smart person, and I'm happy for him.
