- Working (with Abe Timmerman (abeltje)) on Test::Smoke and finally hope to nail it to the new environment
- Help others with questions regarding perl5 configuration
- Give, hopefully useful, feedback and remarks to all questions on the other QA projects. I might even prod them with new feature requests and end-user wishes (hello Paul Johnson (pjcj) :)

I want to work with David and Ricardo on the PAUSE indexing stuff, and complete some of my work for a PAUSE web service.
- Finishing off the Test::Class -> subtests conversion
- Helping Ricardo with a new Plack based PAUSE front end if he'll have me :-)
- Like to pick brains and see if folk can come up with a decent framework for testing continuously deployed perl web apps... which may well play into Leon looking into test installation.
