-Why I will be sticking to CPAN
+Developer Release of SDL 2.3_1
 </h1>
 <div class="CONTENT">
-<div style="text-align: right;"><i>sculpted in clay,</i></div><div style="text-align: right;"><i>then fired to glass.<br /></i><i><br /></i></div><br />Recently there was really long <a href="http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.sdl.devel/2009/09/msg1424.html">discussion </a>on sdl-devel@perl.org about providing packages for SDL perl rather than focusing on CPAN releases. The gists of the argument was that SDL perl should be making platform specific packages for end users. I agree with this idea but I do have to face the truth. <br /><br />The truth is there are very few developers currently working on SDL Perl. The truth is CPAN provides several tools that which currently drives development for SDL Perl. There are people interested in packaging SDL Perl (<a href="http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49003">kmx</a>, <a href="http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.sdl.devel/2009/09/msg1433.html">jean</a> and Jerome Quelin). The truth is there are other very <a href="http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49084">critical areas</a> we can focus on. <br /><br />If there are people looking to package SDL Perl for their platform please contact us at sdl-devel@perl.org.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-6565605958523853965?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div></div></div>

+<h1>Alpha Release of new API</h1>After a considerable amount of hacking and rewriting we have release the first development release of SDL perl on <a href="http://search.cpan.org/%7Ekthakore/SDL-2.3_1/">CPAN</a>. <br />
+<br />
+<h2>Overview of 2.3_1</h2>In this version our goal was to tackle the proper allocations and destruction of SDL resources. We have accomplished this for all SDL Core structures. Moreover we have also improved the test suite and documentation considerably. Please read the <a href="http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/KTHAKORE/SDL-2.3_1/CHANGELOG">CHANGELOG</a> for a more detailed look. <br />
+<br />
+<br />
+<h2>Next steps</h2><ul><li>Complete bindings for Image, Mixer, ... so on</li>
+<li>Come up with a method to provide threading in callbacks</li>
+<li>Maintain and improve SDL Core as results for CPANTS come in </li>
+</ul><br />
