DuckDuckGo has made a second $25,000 USD donation to The Perl and Raku Foundation. This is tremendous news, and will help to continue to fund development of Perl. From TPRF President Stuart J Mackintosh:
DuckDuckGo has demonstrated how Perl and its ecosystem can deliver power and scale to drive the DuckDuckGo core systems, plug-in framework and Instant Answers. The Foundation is grateful that DuckDuckGo recognises the importance of Perl, and for their generous funding support for a second year through their charitable donations programme.
