In your first talk's slides make the following changes:

Hm, I don’t think I say that. I’m pretty sure I say:

=item At the top of your source file (program, module, 
library, C<do>hickey), prominently assert that you are
running perl version 5.12 or better via:

 use v5.12;  # minimal for unicode_strings feature
 use v5.14;  # optimal for unicode_strings feature

Which seems just fine. Well, or close to it: I’m not too worried about the Perl 5 ⁵ ⁄ ₁₀₀₀ people. I hope that doesn’t seem too 💔 of me.

I’m trying to inculcate them with the vVERNO style for the express purpose of avoiding just such an error.

Thank you for looking through the slides. I did make a couple of minor updates today, and pushed my changes.

On stage in the morning.

    I'm sure you're correct and I was blind. Does that put me in the 5/1000 category? :)

    Thanks for posting the slides.

    Update: Yes, you're correct. It looks like it will be a nice presentation.
