Some ruminations (Score:1)
Modern Perl ...
* uses no deprecated or "evil" features
* freely uses features of recent Perls and recent module versions
* discards contortions used for compatibility with ancient Perls and ancient module versions
* uses newer, cleaner, more powerful modules, rather than decade-old modules generally agreed to be showing their age
* generally follows current best coding and interface practices (but may decide to ignore specific recommendations when appropriate)
* follows best security practices
* shares with others: performs decently without hogging system or network resources
