Being A Perl Release Manager
Abigail will give a talk at YAPC::NA 2012 described as:
For a long time, all Perl releases were done by the pumpking. However, in recent years, we have streamlined the process, and now “everyone” can do a release of Perl, and get his/her 15 minutes of fame.
In this presentation, using my experience in releasing 5.15.9, we’ll show what it takes to make a Perl release.

My little part in the greater Perl world.
I've wanted to do this a few times, but with my book and a one year old daughter, I just don't have the time to dedicate to this. That being said, I'm very happy to see that the process works well enough that plenty of people can share this responsibility.
