in reply to When is a feature bloat?

Totally off-topic, but I'm curious - what's with the style of "brian d foy?" I found this style guide which creates a lot more questions than answers (such as WHY?). He also has press mentions all of which is giving me a really surreal haven't slept in 72 hours type feeling. Anyone know why he insists on that notation of his name?

    From what I remember (I think it was in a TPJ issue) - perl is case sensitive and so is brian.

    -derby

      I can still name variables with mixed case in Perl though.

    He's the artist formerly known as Brian D. Foy.

    And that, as far as I can tell, is the jist of the whole thing.

    Maybe he is an ee cummings fan :)
