• Commented on Type::Tiny - not just for attributes
  Oh. Using a hashref might be better, than using eval (that's what I'm doing now :)! But using eval is so simple. This is how it looks inside: ...here goes types importing... my $check = eval "Type::Params::compile($attributes)"; Where $attributes can...

  Maybe there should be a simple pre-applying form where people can vote just for ideas, like 'Should I ask for a grant for this...?' and get responses like 'Yeah, that'd be great' or 'Nah.. this is just silly'. This is...

  I am afraid that Perl community won't benefit from my grant work, and it's not very right thing to ask for the money (in my case), so I just hack on my own :D...

  You missed as a point "People don't know that the grants exist" and "People don't think their ideas/plans are appropriate for a grant". TPF should probably advertise them more.

  As Nicholas pointed out, the grants system is a bit arcane, and takes a fair amount of work and waiting, just to apply.

  To everyone else: You'll never know if your idea/plan was good enough for a grant if you don't apply! Don't assume it isnt, ask!

• metadoo commented on About the Grants Committee

  Whenever someone is to submit a grant proposal, that proposal goes through one's "internal review" first. And in that internal review one asks yourself: "Why should I ask to be paid for what countless of others just CONTRIBUTE to Perl community? The Perl itself and tens of thousands of modules are literally millions of hours, hundreds of years of work just contributed. Why should I ask for pay?". This is the perfectly right question to ask. And this makes the one's internal review quite picky, and the result is what we see - no proposals. And, though surprisingly it may sound, this is the…

• Toby Inkster commented on Type::Tiny - not just for attributes

  Attribute::Contract looks interesting. I've shied away from adding sub attribute declaration (or something like Method::Signatures-style declaration) from Type::Params so far, because I've been unable to find a pleasant way to map string type names (e.g. "Str") to the underlying type constraint objects. (This is the one thing Moose's global type constraint registry is good for!) If you've found a good solution for that, I look forward to seeing it.

  One feature you may find useful is this:

  my %types;
  Types::Standard->import(
    { into => \%types },
    qw( Str ArrayRef ),

  Some of your example code is cut off on the right side. Can you fix that please?
