learning through small steps (Score:1)
The thing I liked that you mentioned is the way it's possible to learn about a bunch of stuff through actually tackling a relatively simple and small task. Here, you learned about Test::Builder, GitHub, and more.
I'm doing the same at the moment. I have a large, popular piece of software to rewrite in Moose. First, I'll rewrite one of my small systems that no-one uses in Moose - I'm picking up lots on structuring Roles, etc, and what feels right. It's a great way to learn with relatively low risk.
