Just in case you like to know, I'm currently full-time father of 2 kids, half-time Perl hacker, sort-of DJ, bicyclist, no longer dreadlocked and 33 years old

I'm also head of Vienna.pm [pm.org], maintainer of the CPANTS [perl.org] project, member of the TPF Grants Commitee [perlfoundation.org] and the YAPC Europe Foundation [yapceurope.org].

I've got stuff on CPAN [cpan.org], held various talks [domm.plix.at] and organised YAPC::Europe 2007 in Vienna [yapceurope.org].

Perl Hacks

[ #29671 ]

I just got a bunch of books (plus two T-Shirts) from O'Reilly Germany as sponsoring for the Austrian Perl Workshop (thanks a lot!). Among the books are two copies of Perl Hacks.

I wanted to take a look at this book since I first heard about it, so I started to browser through the TOC. Hack #37 ("Drink to the CPAN") cought my attention, as I have some cider-blured memories of playing the CPAN drinking game during YAPC::Europe::2004 in Belfast. I was quite surprised as I read it! (Finding out why I was surprised is left as an exercise to the reader (of the book, which seems to be very interesting and fun - I'll definitly have to get a copy for myself)).
