No Advent Calendar this year
Hi everyone, I'm sorry to say, but we do not have enough time and volunteers to put out an Advent Calendar this year. I appreciate the comments made on the thread I started on it - and the ideas raised remain in the Calendar repo and I hope we will reach them eventually. Unfortunately, it will not be this year. My apologies and thanks again for the support and understanding. Sawyer.

Sorry to hear that Sawyer. I'll still write my 3 articles - should I create a PR in the Calender repo for them, or just send them to the mailing list? Andy

Please create a PR on the calendar repo - we can always revert the decision if we get enough articles. Also we will find a way to publish the existing articles in the repo even if they less than 24.

I've been slowly working on my own article as well, written from the clueless part-time hacker aspect that I am, who just wants to solve a problem. I'll try to post something when I get a chance, but I want to say that I really like this series of articles on perlmaven: http://perlmaven.com/password-protecting-web-pages-in-dancer2 This is the type of stuff we should be deploying in the skeleton from day one if at all possible. Or maybe have options to the skeleton command to allow us to include skeleton-templates when generating a site. I know people will argue that no one skeleton can fit everyone's needs and that you end up re-writing them all anyway. But that misses the point that it helps lower the steep learning curve and gives people working, tested examples of proven and supported ways to do things. Heck, having a skeleton with authentication broken out into it's own modules would be awesome, it would show a bunch of standard ways to break apps into pieces and give people guidance. Will it be perfect? No! But perfect is the enemy of good enough. Cheers, John

An article on DPAE was one of my promised ones, although I was going to concentrate more on the various features, whilst just touching on its initial implementation in an app. Andy
