Stuff with the Perl Foundation. A couple of patches in the Perl core. A few CPAN modules. That about sums it up.

Here are a few Acme:: modules I've wanted to write. You can write them, though, since I've been working too much on TAPx::Parser.

Acme::emcA: tuptuo lla sesreveR
Acme::XPDocumentation: There is no documentation. You must run the tests and read the output.
Acme::FixTheHorribleCamelCaseMethodNamesBeforeIGoBlindYouSillyGit: Need you ask?
Acme::Code::Police::State: Finds all instances of Acme::Code::FreedomFighter and renames them to Acme::Code::Terrorist (and creates a symlink between the two).
Acme::Inc: It produces comical 'blam!', 'pow!', 'oops!' type of error messages before killing your program at random intervals.
Acme::Suicide: Pretty much a one liner.
delete $INC{ACME/Suicide.pm}
Acme::Homeland::Security: All warnings colored with Term::ANSIColor and then sent to /dev/null

Acme::MetaSyntactic::batman [cpan.org] is a prerequisite for Acme::Inc.

Suggestions welcome for what I should put in the package Acme::JSON::Vorhees.

Acme::emcA [cpan.org] already exists, but it does something slightly different.

  Then maybe it can be Acme::dnalrednoWnIecilA.
Police vs FreedomFighter ++ (Score:1)

I've always thought that the brilliantly clever playfulness of Acme::Code::Police and Acme::Code::FreedomFighter is one of the best examples of what's right with Perl (that it's possible to do things like this) and the Perl community (the fact that people actually do it).
