-Newbie Friendly Perl Projects +Release SDL 2.4: Frozen-Bubble begins to go to CPAN

-
A seed needs soft soil and water to grow
This is a reply to szabgab's post on how to get newbies interested in Perl modules. Being a newbie in Perl myself I thought I should take a shot.

I was thinking you can make projects more accessible to newbies by having a step by step plan included with where they need to look. For example for docs of SDL_perl:
  1. Look at SDL docs [link]
  2. See where SDL_perl is using the same functions [link] and the docs to this file [link]
  3. Use the pod format to add it to the source [link to using pod]
  4. {BONUS} Come up with tutorial or cookbook [link to example]
  5. Submit code to github [link] or email them to me [link]

Basically assume nothing is known. I know this may seem demeaning but I am a newbie to Perl and sometimes I hate looking for crust (docs). I call it crust because a crust is useful for me to eat a pizza slice, but it has no flavor .

+SDL 2.4 is released!

If you cannot wait then grab SDL 2.4 and Alien::SDL 1.2 (pick PANGO support) from CPAN and grab the toolchain branch from the repo. Disclaimer the branch will be volatile for a bit.
