Leon Brocard (aka acme) is an orange-loving Perl eurohacker with many varied contributions to the Perl community, including the GraphViz module on the CPAN. YAPC::Europe was all his fault. He is still looking for a Perl Monger group he can start which begins with the letter 'D'.

Vala
I'd been thinking recently about virtual machines based around GLib, so it was a pleasant surprise to come across the Gnome Project's Vala:
Vala is a new programming language that aims to bring modern programming language features to GNOME developers without imposing any additional runtime requirements and without using a different ABI compared to applications and libraries written in C.
It's based around GObject and of course, it's yet another language, but it's mostly like C#. See the examples.

it seems that now even QT use the GLib's main loop, if present, because frankly it's better than most (if not all) select-based implementations out there (thread safe, pluggable, portable).
You can save space. Or you can save time. Don't ever count on saving both at once.
