HEADLINES



With great pleasure, we announce Ulrich Rieke as the winner of “The Weekly Challenge - 033”. Congratulations Ulrich, you should soon hear from Perl Careers about your reward. For rest of the participants, I would say Good Luck for next time. Keep sending in your solutions and share your knowledge with each other.

I am working on the format of Perl Weekly Challenge Advent Calendar currently. It would be a collection of 24 most popular solutions ever submitted by the members. Therefore, I request all members to send us their favourite, specially Kian-Meng Ang and Laurent Rosenfeld, as they have been reviewing solutions every week. Once we shortlist the 24 solutions, we would then reach out to the member who contributed the solution and request to write a short blog about it. If they have blogged about it already then we would try to use it appropriately.
