This is a very disappointing development.

Perl is going to be MUCH harder to maintain than java.  I recall the
joke "A programmer had a problem.  He decided to use perl.  The
programmer then had two problems."

I don't want to get too involved in the technical details here.  But
perhaps you could tell me how solid this decision is, and who to
discuss some of these issues with?

Thanks.
