Merry Christmas everyone !!!
Being a practice muslim, I don’t celebrate Christmas but I do wish all my friends (Christian by faith) on this occassion. I am sure we have many members in the Team PWC who celebrate the festival. I wish all of them a very joyous christmas with their loved ones.
As of today, there are 319 members in Team PWC. Out of those, 17 members never contributed even once. We also have 26 guest members who contributed in languages other than Perl and Raku only. I must confess, we have regular members who contributes in guest languages every week too.
SPONSORS
As per the tradition, we always had solo spoonsor, starting with Pete Seargent followed by Lance Wicks. The current year 2024 is sponsored by Lance Wicks until the end of year. As of today, we don’t have anyone in the pipeline for year 2025 but I am hopefull. I will try to reach out to prospect and will share the end result. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Lance Wicks for the generous sponsorship.
CHAMPIONS
As you all know, initially we used to declare champion every week but that changed after sometime and it became monthly event. So in the year 2024, so far we have had 11 champions as listed below:
- Neil Tovar
- Mustafa Aydin
- Asher Harvey-Smith
- Reinier Maliepaard
- Laurent Rosenfeld (
2nd time) - Jaldhar H. Vyas (
2nd time) - Andrew Schneider

On January 6th, the first Monday of the month, we would declare our last champion of the year 2024.
REVIEWERS
In the history of weekly challenge, we had many reviewers for Perl, Raku or both. It has been a long time since we had any reviews. I am still waiting for the surprise call for review. As of today, we have 160 Perl Reviews and 63 Raku Reviews. Below is the list of all reviewers with total reviews by each of them.
