I'm learning perl to do some simple stuff with the bugzilla API. Got the Camel book, maybe I'll get through it this time. The fact that Perl has "pointers" kinda makes me sad though.
@pyrzak on twitter. I work at NASA as part of the HCI Group at Ames Resesarch Center. I've been developing software on Bugzilla for 3 years, and contributing for almost 2.
Perl doesn't have pointers, it has references (like every other modern language in the world). They're much less dangerous.
