Hi, I haven't sent anything out through the P5EE mailing list in a couple of years. I'm using it now to raise a related issue.
"Cloud Computing" has arisen as a powerful new paradigm (and buzzword) [1]. So here are my questions for discussion. 1. Does anyone know if anyone in the Perl community is working with Google to get Perl certified for use in Google App Engine? [2] (It currently only supports Python.) 2. If I were going to try to organize a project ("Cloud Computing on Perl"), are there others who would like to participate? (I would imagine that such a project would address a variety of cloud computing platforms [3] [4] including Free Software DIY clouds.) 3. If I were organizing this, does anyone have any particular people/projects with a vested interest to suggest that I should coordinate this with?
