Discuss the Moose Presentation!

Hi everyone,

thanks for attending my talk on Moose last night at the Seattle Perl Users Group.   It was great to have so many smart people together to discuss it.

The slides are online and released CC on my website:    http://www.dynamicacademy.net

There's PDF and HTML versions available - if you would like the Keynote originals, let me know separately and I'll send you the most up-to-date version.

Moose is under very active development by several fabulous developers, so bugs are fixed quickly, new features are still being added, and discussion is welcome.  I'd highly recommend subscribing to http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.perl.moose today.   They also welcome questions and design suggestions, and it's a really friendly group.

If' you'd like to keep reading and learning about Moose and metaclass theory (after joining the newsgroup), the last few slides have links for additional reading, which I'll repeat here:
