This is probably old hat for those selected few among you that follow P5P, but yesterday, Anno Siegel posted an interesting article on comp.lang.perl.misc for the rest of us, entitled "Perl core support for inside-out classes". An excerpt:
As of v5.10 Perl will provide support for inside-out classes in form of
a new core module Hash::Util::FieldHash. It is already available in the
current bleadperl.
Inside-out classes store object data in hashes keyed by the object. That
way each field of a class is realized as one lexical hash which may thus
be called a field hash.
You can read the whole post on Google Groups, here.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
