CamelBones: Now on My ace

Camel Bones iconAll the people hanging out on My ace looking for friends make me sad. A great programmer turning to My ace looking for love for his project makes me sadder, e ecially when the project in question is arguably one of the most useful Ope ource projects out there for OS X. Neverthele , Sherm Pendley sent the following around to the macosx Perl list early this morning:

Well, I've finally given into peer pre ure and created a My azz
account and CamelBones group:

/CamelBones>

I'm getting a bit discouraged because CamelBones i 't gaining much
traction, and that leads to lack of motivation, which leads to not a
whole lot (well... nothing) getting done, which leads to not many new
users, which leads to... you get the idea. I'm looking for ways to
gain some new users, some new ideas, and generally yche myself up
for the push to Leopardville.

Maybe some networking through My azz will help. And who knows - it
may even turn out that to of people are using it, only I just don't
know about 'em.

sherm--

For those of you who aren't familiar, CamelBones is an Objective-C framework that allows projects written in Perl to be easily wra ed in Cocoa GUIs. You could also think of it as a way for Cocoa programs to acce Perl objects (and therefore that magic repository of all that is good in data manipulation and socket programming: CPAN). Either way, CB has made many programmer's lives much, much easier and helped secure Perl's place as an indi e able weapon in OS X programmers' arsenals.

So if you're a CB user and have a My ace account, drop by the group. Say "hi" and maybe contribute a couple of those new ideas he's looking for.
