Before I dig into the updates, I would like to acknowledge them.<br /><h3>Core Development</h3><b>Acme (<a href="http://use.perl.org/%7Eacme/journal/">Leon Brocard</a>):</b> Has started to work on the Redesign Effort with me. The help is much appreciated! Enjoy your vacation. <br /><br /><h3>Website and Windows Testing</h3><b>FROGGS (Tobias Leich):</b> Came in as a new user to SDL Perl. And after breaking the redesigned SDL Perl in as many ways possible he has decided to help out on the new site. <br /><br /><br /><h3>Last Legacy Release</h3><br />Ok! Now this weekend hopefully we will release our last legacy release, after this we move on! This release will focus on showing of SDL + Perl possibilities.<br /><h3>Pong + SDL::Game::Rect</h3><a href="http://onionstand.blogspot.com/">garu</a> has been working on making SDL object extensions that provide a more perly way to use and play with the SDL bindings. To demonstrate the benefits of this SDL::Tutorial::Pong is done and being polished up. SDL::Game::Rect is a peek in to the design and vision we have for SDL down the road.<br /><h3>Design</h3>The design we have settled on for future release for SDL Perl can be broken in to two layers, SDL::* and SDL::Game::*. Previously the SDL Perl library tried to provide C bindings and provide Perl Idiomatic access. This was messy in regards to the single responsibility principle (do one thing and do it well).<br /><br />We have decided to separate these two focuses into the two name spaces SDL::* and SDL::Game::*. SDL::* will provide straight access to SDL's C API, nothing less and nothing more. SDL::Game::* will extend and make pretty unicorns for Perl. <br /><br />This design has already begin to pay of. One major benefit been in the XS <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/commit/20f544ea4f3e7b34c68445aba89ed9c69d411ddf">readability</a>. Moreover since structs are treated as objects, Perl manages their destruction, and deliver less memory leaks.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-4327446497206876141?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div></div></div>

+We released a playable (client) frozen bubble on <a href="http://search.cpan.org/%7Ekthakore/Games-FrozenBubble-0.001_1/lib/Games/FrozenBubble.pm">CPAN</a>. There is more work to be done but it is a great start! It currently works on Windows and Linux.<br />
