Hello, world! This is Simon Cozens, www.perl.com managing editor,
bringing you the latest goings on from the world of Perl and our
own site.
* Perl at large.
Mark-Jason Dominus, the former editor of perl.com, has set up a
mailing list for weekly Perl quizzes; subscribe, and you'll be
sent an interesting problem to apply your Perl skills to:
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=aoa9v7%24trl%241%40plover.com

Are you puzzled by SOAP, XML-RPC and web services? There's a
simple introduction to building web services in Perl in an article
over at builder.com:
http://builder.com.com/article.jhtml?id=u00320021008BR101.htm&fromtm=e601-2
In true "great artists steal" fashion, Jean-Michel Hiver has
blatantly ripped off one of the nicer features about Python's
Zope web architecture. Petal is a Perl implementation of the
Template Attribute Language, a HTML templating language which
uses "magical" HTML attributes to fill in templating variables.
Check out the documentation and the mailing list:

* What's new on www.perl.com?
Leon Brocard continues his coverage of all things Perl 6 in this
week's summary; Larry finally weighs in on many matters, there's
discussion of last week's sprintf patch, and much more:

Are you fed up with those who think that commercial applications
need to be written in an "enterprise" language like Java or C++?
So are we, so we spoke to Mike McCauley at Open System Consultants.
Mike's behind a commercial Radius server, Radiator, which is
written in Perl; we asked him for his comments on how commercial
development with Perl works:
