==== Cycling ====

Rode my bike to work for the first time today!

==== Fedora Project ====

 * Updated `perl-DateTime` to 1.39 in F-25 and Rawhide:
  * Replaced `Params::Validate` with `Params::ValidationCompiler` and `Specio`
   * In benchmarks, this makes constructing a new `DateTime` object about 14% faster
   * However, it slows down module load time by about 100 milliseconds (1/10 of a second) on upstream's desktop system with a primed cache (so really measuring compile time, not disk load time)
  * When you pass a locale to `$dt->set` you will now get a warning suggesting you should use `$dt->set_locale` instead ([[CPAN:115420|CPAN RT#115420]])
  * Bump minimum required Perl to 5.8.4 from 5.8.1

==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `perl-Clone` (0.38) to fix FTBFS when `perl` is not in the minimal buildroot
 * Updated `perl-Taint-Runtime` (0.03), `perl-Task-Weaken` (1.04), `perl-Term-ReadKey` (2.33), `perl-Test-API` (0.005) and `perl-Test-Base` (0.88) to build-require `perl-generators` for proper dependency generation
 * Updated `perl-Test-Assert` (0.0504) to fix FTBFS when `perl` is not in the minimal buildroot, and to build-require `perl-generators` for proper dependency generation
