Hi all!

There is an interesting discussion about Perl here:

http://discuss.joelonsoftware.com/default.asp?joel.3.546349.20

Quoting it:

<<<<<<<<<
For some reasons there are lots of buzz about Ruby, Javascript, Python but not 
too much about Perl. Why is that? What makes Perl less trendy than those 
languages?
>>>>>>>>>

As some people note, Perl is not as new as these languages are, and so has 
become less trendy and more "well-established". There are other comments too.

Regards,
