| Perl Weekly Issue #49 - July 2 , 2012 - New: Perl 5 porters summary and CERT Perl Secure Coding Standard Mingalarba, This issue is still full of links to people posting about their experience at YAPC::NA.

Besides those, there are quite a few interesting and diverse articles this week. Enjoy! Announcements Perl5-Porters Weekly: 2012 June 17-25
Mark Allen started a weekly report about the discussions on the Perl 5 porters mailing list. If you don't know, that's the list where people who maintain and develop the Perl compiler/interpreter discuss what they working on, what features are added to perl and which are removed.

I have set this up to build a place where people can go if they want to learn Perl 6. Some people might think it is too early. Others might say it is too late. I think it is a question of investment. I am going to invest quite some energy to make this a useful resource. While Perl 6 is not 'production ready' for many people, I am planning to be pragmatic and useful there. So the site already has a list of Perl 6 modules you can use. And a mailing list you can subscribe to. See you there! Articles The CERT Perl Secure Coding Standard
A long article listing many potential security issues in Perl code. Some of the problems can lead to an attacker gaining access to the system, others just create a denial of service for legitimate users. In any case, having such document to work with, will hopefully bring more companies to use better practices when coding in Perl. It can also bring people to start using Perl::Critic as it already has policies that can help check your code for many of these vulnerabilities. Perl web framework Mojolicious reaches 3.0
