The Perl Foundation Gets New Leadership

Andy Lester writes to tell us that the Perl foundation has named a new president and steering committee members. Bill Odom landed the seat of president, replacing Allison Randal who has occupied the seat since 2002. From the article: "Founded in 2000, The Perl Foundation (TPF) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation based in Holland, Michigan, established to advance the use and development of the Perl programming language through open discussion, collaboration, design, and code."

No wonder we will never see Perl6. Maybe this hunta will get it produced, but I really think we should have left Larry Wall in charge of Perl.

What's going on?

I hope it delays it. Perl 6 is Larry Wall's faggoty ego gone mad. He should be executed so he cannot fuck around with perl anymore.

My penis is not small. It is just highly impotent. It's a problem of function, rather than dimension.
