Another Perl 5 OO Syntax [search.cpan.org]
I previously blogged about the reformed-perl OO syntax here, and here is a spiffy YAPOO (Yet Another Perl OO syntax) called Spiffy.
"Spiffy" is a framework and methodology for doing object oriented (OO) programming in Perl. Spiffy combines the best parts of Exporter.pm, base.pm, mixin.pm and SUPER.pm into one magic foundation class. It attempts to fix all the nits and warts of traditional Perl OO, in a clean, straightforward and (perhaps someday) standard way.Spiffy borrows ideas from other OO languages like Python, Ruby, Java and Perl 6. It also adds a few tricks of its own.
I haven't played with it, but I still like the idea behind reformed-perl better. But then they don't quite aim at the same problem.
