I think you should apologize for attempting to fracture and disrupt the choice of communication channels for 100s of open source projects instead. You are making life harder for maintainers, who volunteer their time to give people software and support for free. Please stop doing that.
Most (well, all) Perl programming I do these days is simple scripts for automating tedious tasks, reporting, etc., and the odd CGI script.
Funny story, though: during my training I spent some time in a team doing in-house Perl development, and I sat next to Sebastian Riedel's desk! :-) It's a small world!
Unfortunately the default way of installing Perl modules (cpan command line tool). is just as insecure as curl | sh - Note that we have added an example of securely installing Mojo on the homepage as well, if you have configured Perl for signature verification - http://mojolicio.us/
