HackDay! 11/12/11

David (DDubs!) came over for a HACKDAY today. Fun times!

He's in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike. He's installing SVN on localhost, with the full webDAV thing. Why? So he can practice migrating SVN to git. Yes, crazy land. I'm more looking forward to the actual project, a Bayesian Classifier to practice with Moose.

I've updated my App::PM::Website tool for maintaining the Los Angeles Perl Mongers website. It now uses Lingua::EN::Numbers::Ordinate to render dates like "Wednesday the 7th" instead of "Wednesday the 7." That's one more piece of manual hard coding replaced with software. Woot! Come on out on December 7th for Mike's talk on VOIP!

I really do want to get this code into a state where it's releasable to CPAN and usable by other monger groups. Maybe by making my vapor App::PM::Toolbox into reality? Why am I so tentative on releasing that?

I also updated and released v0.113160 of Hadoop::Streaming perl module, mostly to use Any::Moose. I made the changes a few months ago at a user's request. I sent him a beta version for testing, and it got lost in the weeds. I merged the code over today from feature/mouse and pushed it out. While I was in there, I updated the documentation in the main package to show how to use the '-archive' flag to hadoop.

I love typing 'dzil release' and having my Changes file updated, checked into git, release git tagged, release built and bundle pushed to PAUSE for CPAN.

If I had checked github first, I would have seen this lovely change request waiting where a user had made the Any::Moose conversion for me. My first incoming github change request. ROCKSTAR!
