</lurk> Annoyingly I'm not going to be able to go to LPW tomorrow now (post-op dog needs looking after rather more than was anticipated) but one thing that's not been mentioned is the evolution of the Perl testing framework.
Test.pm pre-dates Beck's seminal SUnit, and Perl folk caught the testing bug much earlier than most other languages. IMHO Test.pm and chromatic/schwern's Test::Builder would be on the timeline as significant events in the Perl world. We still have, I think, the best testing frameworks and infrastructure in any language. Cheers, Adrian <lurk>
