  Great news, but would you reconsider Ron's comment from over a year ago, and do this fulltime with funding? Given the high level of interest in this, I'm sure you'd be able to get crowdsourced funding to cover a very...

• Commented on Looking at DBI Part 6, More Data Fetching
  I'd not seen the way of using placeholders like that before, rather than plain '?'. But why 'use vars' - seems like too much pre 5.6 chicanery. Some thing else to be deprecated in perl I think.......

  If I were considering porting a module to mop, what would be the best way of going about that?

• Stevan Little commented on On prototyping in public ...

  Timm, you can use the prototype on CPAN for now - https://metacpan.org/release/STEVAN/mop-0.03-TRIAL - the guts will likely change, but the surface syntax and semantics should stay mostly the same.
