    Here's Wishing perl

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

    According to the Perl timeline, Perl 5 was released on this date eight years ago. That's eons, in software years. Back then, there was no CPAN (yet) and many of the good programming practices now taken for granted (strictures, warnings, lexical scoping, references) were shiny, new, and unexplored.

    For perl time line please see...

    and many happy returns. I really like perl. I have to admit that I have a little bit of dread about the syntax changes in perl 6 ... ** pieces of broken scripts everywhere **
