Hi there!

Hacktoberfest is the annual excuse created by Digital Ocean to contribute to an Open Source project.

According to the most recent survey of Stack Overflow 36% of their respondents have never contributed to Open Source and 28% did that less than once a year.

If you are among these 54% it is a very good opportunity to participate in the Hacktoberfest and use that as an excuse to learn how to make a change or to have at least 4 contributions this year.

If you are an experienced contributor, then just keep doing your thing. On the long run it pays off.

There are 3 posts dealing with Perl and the Hacktoberfest. Find the one that fits you and let us know about your progress!

Enjoy your week!
