Well, they announced who's getting the Perl Foundation grants for this application period.

As you can imagine, I'm positively ecstatic!

Yes, I'm one of the three who got their grants.  Now I've got to get a bank account to put the money in, and then look up what kind of computer I want to get with the first part of the money. (I'm aiming for $800.)
