+The site [[http://cpan-explorer.org/][cpan-explorer]] have been update
+with three new maps for the
+[[http://yapceurope2009.org/ye2009/][YAPC::EU]]. This three maps are
+different from the previous one. This time, instead of having a big
+photography of the distributions and authors on the CPAN, Task::Kensho
+have been used to obtain a representation of what we call the *modern
+Perl*.
+
+** distributions map
+
+Task::Kensho acted as the seed for this map. Task::Kensho contains a
+list of modules recommended to do modern Perl development. So we
+extracted the modules that have a dependancie toward one of these
+modules, and create the graph with this data.
+
+** authors map
+
+The authors listed on this map are the one from the previous map. There
+is a far less authors thant the previous authors map, but it's more
+readable. A lot of informations are on the map : label size, node size,
+edge size, color of the node.
+
+** web communities map
+
+This map look a lot like the previous one, as we used nearly the same
+data. The seed have been extended with a few websites only.
+
+** cpan-explorer
+
+CPAN Explorer is now hosted on a wordpress, so you can leave comments or
+suggestions for new maps you would like to see (a focus on web
+development modules, tests::* module, etc ...). All the new maps are
+also searchable, and give you a permalink for you search
+([[http://cpan-explorer.org/2009/07/28/new-web-communities-map-for-yapceu/#dist%3Dlumberjaph.net][I'm
+here]] and
+[[http://cpan-explorer.org/2009/07/28/version-of-the-authors-graph-for-yapceu/#author%3Dfranck][here]])
+
+I will give a talk at the
+[[http://yapceurope2009.org/ye2009/talk/2061][YAPC::EU]] about this
+work. Also, each map have been printed, and will be given for the
+auction.
+
+This work is a collective effort from all the guys at
+[[http://rtgi.fr/][RTGI]] (antonin created the template for wordpress,
+niko the js and the tools to extract information from the SVG for the
+searchable map, julian helped me to create the graphs and extract
+valuable informations, and I got a lot of feedback from others
+coworkers), thanks guys!.
