in thread Perl and Infiltrating PHP Workplaces

Whenever I work in PHP, it feels like I'm working in an odd version of TT, except that

PHP began life as a Perl templating module and hasn't outgrown its roots. As of Perl5, neither had Perl. Perl6 will be the first time Perl will have outgrown its roots and truly blossomed as a programming language. That Perl could do as much speaks to the roots TimToady gave it.


My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?
