[Epo-members-announce] Adding Padre, the Perl IDE as and EPO project

[Christopher Humphries]

I have no interest in Padre as a EPO project. I'd rather see Perl
integration in existing IDEs/environments people already use instead of
introducing a brand new one, that is WX Perl at that.

Expand more on Eclipse, vim, Emacs, IDEA, Visual Studio, etc. Things
programmers already use.

We don't need more tools, we need more support for Perl, Moose, Catalyst in
existing tools.

"How can you help me solve my problem" should be a focus, not "check out
more features in this other place". Features are interesting, solving
software problems is useful. Tinkering is fun, but getting stuff done pays
the bills. I think EPO should help on that front, it's what companies care
about, and for me personally as a programmer, it's what I care about when I
need to get work done for my company and other contracts.

In my opinion,
Christopher Humphries
