http://perltraining.com.au/contact.html would be a start, unless anyone knows a direct address? see if paul.fenwick(a)perltraining.com.au bounces perhaps?
I found his website and emailed him Liz

Paul will be in New Zealand for the next fortnight - not sure if he's flying around or rental car-ing.. someone may want to invite him to speak @ LUG.
Now that sounds like a plan and a half! anyone have contact for him?

At LCA, I went to a presentation by Paul Fenwick from this company:
There are a lot of resources linked from their site for noobs and experts alike.
Paul was a really good presenter and makes PERL sound exciting, which is quite a feat considering all the buzz over other languages like python/ruby/java etc...
Here is a link to the talk he gave:
http://linux.conf.au/programme/schedule/view_talk/175
I'm still looking for a copy of his slides/video of the talk, I'd like to see those.
He talked a lot about moose:
http://www.iinteractive.com/moose/
I enjoyed him talking about this tip on error handling, something about programming I've always found annoying is error handling/exceptions, and this takes a bit of the pain out of it:
http://perltraining.com.au/tips/2008-08-20.html
And the best example of sysadmin laziness I think I've seen yet:

If you like to play minesweeper, but are too lazy to actually play it.
Best, John

Hi all.
I'm working on SEOing a website for a client and part of the site is perl based. I have need of a good reference/tutorial/beginners-guide-to book on perl for a short term borrow (I prefer hard-copy manuals to the web where possible) to get me up to speed so that I can optimise this site without causing headaches for the client.
Can anyone help out? I've had a quick glance through the WLUG library and can't seem to find anything (I'm gonna have another in-depth look but I don't recall seeing any books on Perl in there and I know I haven't ordered any recently.
