  1. MetaCPAN was upgraded from Elasticsearch version 2 to version 8 this past Monday. As you can imagine, that's quite a jump. Many thanks to @haarg for sorting out most of the compatibility issues on our API side.

    If any of your queries have broken, please open an issue at github.com/metacpan/metacpan-a or ask in #metacpan on irc.perl.org

    Many thanks to Philipp Krenn and Shay Banon of Elastic for their continued support. 🙏

  6. Recently worked a bit with Getopt:: Long. Quite cool that it is possible to pass a subroutine for a command line argument and thus perform sanity checks right away 😊

  8. @KO6YQ #Perl version “5.38.1a” appears to have been a botched test release that escaped to #CPAN per this post from @leonerd: nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5

    Please stand by for the correct version 5.38.x release.

    Note that “perl-5.38.1a” on that #MetaCPAN page is grayed out, which indicates it is not actually the latest release.

  12. @ChristosArgyrop @Perl I don’t think it searched #CPAN or #MetaCPAN, because “BinaryTree” doesn’t exist there. It’s merely suggesting a package name.

    If it actually searched CPAN it would tell you about something like metacpan.org/pod/Tree::Binary

    And if it were truly CPAN-aware it would tell you to name your package Local::BinaryTree so you don’t get surprised later when another #Perl package from outside preempts your name: pause.perl.org/pause/query?ACT
