DESCRIPTION:CPAN has a reliable\, powerful set of tools that it uses to pac
 kage software\, produce documentation\, run tests and install distribution
 s along with their dependencies.\n\nThese tools do such a good job that it
 's a shame only to use them with CPAN modules.\n\nThis talk will show you 
 how to take existing Perl scripts and rearrange them into modules that ins
 tall their dependencies having passed test scripts and ship with good look
 ing\, hyperlinked documentation.\n\nEach idea introduced in this talk take
 s little effort and improves your code independently of the other ideas: y
 ou can choose the parts you like and ignore the rest. Combined\, these ide
 as make your code considerably more manageable.\n\nFurthermore\, you can t
 reat your work as if it were on CPAN without releasing it to the wider wor
 ld. You can make your new modules depend on other private modules as well 
 modules on CPAN and have all dependencies automatically installed.

DESCRIPTION:Documenting spreadsheets presents unusual problems. The talk wi
 ll identify why spreadsheet documentation is generally so poor and how thi
 s can be changed. In under 400 lines of Perl\, a tool has been written to 
 extract POD from within spreadsheets. The talk will describe why this appr
 oach was chosen and what difficulties - in Excel\, Perl and POD - were enc
 ountered and how they were overcome by a beginner. The talk will not try t
 o teach POD.

DESCRIPTION:An Introduction to Automata-Based Programming\nA proposal for t
 he London Perl Workshop by Ian Knopke\, ian.knopke@gmail.com\nIntended len
 gth: 40 Minutes.\n\nAutomata-based programming\, or programming using stat
 e machines\, is a powerful technique offering significant advantages for d
 evelopers with regards to reliability and simplification of program logic 
 in many problem areas. Recently\, authors such as Martin (2002) have ident
 ified automata-based programming as an important technique in Agile progra
 mming practices. However\, despite its ease of use\, this style of program
 ming is relatively unused\, even in situations for which it is ideally sui
 ted.\n\nThis presentation\, intended for a 40 minute time frame\, will int
 roduce automata-based techniques to programmers of all levels\, covering:\
 n\n-Basics of state machines for programmers\n-Suitability to particular p
 roblems\n-Implementation Strategies in Perl\n-Worked examples\n-Implicatio
 ns for TDD and Agile development practices\n-Where to go next: links and r

DESCRIPTION:All programmers know how nice it is to reuse their application 
 code -- you can write a role providing common behavior once\, and let arbi
 trary classes get that behavior whenever you need it.  Elegant.  The same 
 programmer\, however\, may not have considered that tests come in patterns
  and that the same techniques can be used to make the test code more conci
 se\, reliable\, and reusable.\n\nIn this talk\, I'll introduce Test::Sweet
  (a Moose-based Test::Class workalike with some syntax sugar on top)\, and
  show you how you can use the usual Moose OO techniques to make testing ev
 en easier than it already is.

DESCRIPTION:The next generation version of Catalyst was released earlier in
  the year with its core replaced by Moose.\n\nThis talk will discuss writi
 ng modern Catalyst applications taking full advantage of the additional fu
 nctionality of Moose\, and show examples of where things such as controlle
 r and action roles can be extremely helpful to reduce code duplication ins
 ide your Catalyst application.\n\nA short time will also be spent covering
  current prototypes and future developments in Catalyst 5.81 and further\,
  and also the backwards compatibility work which needed to be undertaken t
 o make the release as compatible with the previous (5.7X) release series a
 s possible.\n\nThis talk will be assuming that you are at least partially 
 familiar with both frameworks\, and will concentrate on the use of them to
 gether\, and should be viewed as 'Intermediate' - it will not provide an i
 ntroduction to either topic.

DESCRIPTION:gitweb.cgi is in core git.\ngitweb.cgi is written in perl.\ngit
 web.cgi looks like the web in 1996.\ngitweb.cgi was written in perl as it 
 existed before git\, OO\, or fire were invented.\n\nThis doesn't exactly m
 ake perl look awesome.\nA plan to drag it kicking and screaming into the e
 nlightened ages was hatched\, and gitalist was born.\n\nRipping a nasty CG
 I out into a real modern perl app! Fun! Exciting! Useful! (Easier on the e
 yes!)\nMaintaining 100% uri compatibility with gitweb.cgi and offering adv
 anced configuration facilities and syntax highlighting has made Gitalist a
 n infant project which has raised a lot of interest\, including from from 
 the perl 5 core\, and kernel.org.. This talk will give a brief demonstrati
 on of the current version of Gitalist\, cover which parts of the CGI have 
 been converted and what major re factoring is still to be done - and\, pri
 marily\, try to convince you to consider an alternative to gitweb.cgi whic
 h isn't github isn't _that hard_ to achieve..

DESCRIPTION:Perl’s great at making easy things easy — hiding unnecessary co
 mplexity. Naturally\, that applies to Unix programming\, so that\, for exa
 mple\, capturing the output from a shell command is trivial.\n\nUnfortunat
 ely\, you sometimes find yourself in a situation where Perl’s standard fac
 ilities aren’t quite enough. For example\, what if you want to run multipl
 e processes in parallel? What if you need to both pipe input to a process 
 and capture its output?\n\nPerl also makes hard things possible: it gives 
 you unfettered access to Unix’s low-level APIs for dealing with these thin
 gs — as long as you know how to use them.\n\nThis talk discusses how to us
 e those low-level bits of Unix from your Perl programs\, taking a cookbook
 -style approach to show how to use them for getting real work done.

DESCRIPTION:The Template Toolkit is 10 years old.  That's an incalculably l
 ong time in internet years and let's be honest\, TT2 is showing its age.  
 I'm not saying it's a fat\, ugly pile of stinking crap that needs to be ki
 lled with fire\, but\, well\, it is\, and it should be. \n\nAdmittedly I'v
 e been saying this for some time now.  Rather a long time.  In fact\, enti
 re civilisations have risen and fallen in the time that the long awaited v
 ersion 3 has been in the pipeline.  But I'm pleased to report that the end
  is nigh.  Well\, nigh-ish.\n\nIn this talk\, I will ramble aimlessly down
  wandering paths of loosely interconnected subjects relating to the design
  and implementation of TT3.  But mostly I'll just being showing you some o
 f the cool stuff it can do.  Interspersed with some nice pictures of badge
 rs.  Badgers are nice.\n\nTT3 is a smaller\, lighter\, simpler and way mor
 e funner template language than that of its predecessor.  It's also more c
 onfigurable\, extensible\, malleable and generally fiddle-about-with-able 
 than ever before.  It's got more nobs than you could ever want to tweak\, 
 and most of them go up to eleven.  \n\nBest of all\, I'll be showing real\
 , live\, running code.  Yeah\, imagine that!  A TT3 you can download and a
 ctually run.  Who'd of thought it?  Next thing you know\, Perl 6 will be f
 inished and we can all relax with a nice game of Duke Nukem Forever.

DESCRIPTION:KiokuDB is a Moose-based object database for Perl. If you've ev
 er written a database-backed application\, you know there are a few steps 
 you go through every time. You create your database schema. Then you bind 
 it to Perl (hopefully with an ORM like DBIx::Class or Fey::ORM). Then you 
 add your domain logic inside or on top of the classes that your ORM. Then\
 , finally\, you use those classes to interact with your database.\n\nKioku
 DB aims to eliminate the first two steps. With Kioku\, you create your dom
 ain classes\, and then just use them. If you want to get an\ninstance back
  later\, you store it in KiokuDB and ask Kioku for it back when you want i
 t again. It supports saving entire object graphs (not just trees)\, is fas
 t\, fully transactional\, and lets you add arbitrary indexes to your data.
 \n\nIn this talk\, I'll show you what object databases are\, how to use Ki
 okuDB\, and how to take advantage of KiokuDB's advanced features.

DESCRIPTION:The HTTP RFC gives fantastic detail about how responses from a 
 RESTful application should instruct a conforming user-agent to behave\, an
 d about the contexts in which different responses are appropriate. Yet man
 y HTTP applications seem to know little more than "200 OK".\n\nWe can impr
 ove on this situation by encapsulating some of the logic embodied in the H
 TTP 1.1 RFC. The rationale being that the developer can think in terms clo
 ser to his application domain and a little further away from the underlyin
 g protocol\, but while still being able to develop highly REST-compliant w
