  It's about infrastructure as well, something that although not attracting the limelight, is as important as the open source software it hosts. Today the stewards of the largest open source registries in the world have issued an open letter demanding urgent reform in how open source infrastructure is funded, maintained, and operated.  https://www.i-programmer.info/news/136-open-source/18334-open-source-is-not-just-about-software.html

  GitHub has just announced the GitHub MCP Registry, a new home base for discovering and building with MCP servers. Truth is that since MCP came in the limelight, there's been tons of MCP servers for any task imaginable coming out daily. That means that many good servers go undiscovered, others are simply not discoverable and others are just not worth it. Github understood those developer pain points and has thus founded the official MCP registry for hosting a curated collection of MCP servers, making it easy to discover and plug into them. Some of the first curated partners appearing on the registry include Figma, Postman, HashiCorp, and Dynatrace. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/90-tools/18333-find-your-next-mcp-server-with-githubs-mcp-registry.html

  Oracle has announced the availability of Java 25, the latest version of that stellar programming language and development platform. Months before the official launch we were being made aware more or less of what the new version would herald, as bits and pieces were being disclosed during the several Java conferences that took place since the beginning of the year.  For instance on this year's SpringI/O Nicolai Parlog talked about the forthcoming JEP512, which would make Java easier to learn for beginners. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/80-java/18324-java-25-is-here-whats-new-.html#google_vignette

  Open Source Economy is a new nonprofit organization formed by maintainers of several critical Java libraries to build a safer, stronger Java ecosystem and avert incidents such as Log4Shell.

In the meantime  Perl Rebounds In TIOBE Index - Why? was picked up by Slashdot's editors and has sparked a hot debate. Check it out at : https://developers.slashdot. org/story/25/09/14/0134239/is- perl-the-worlds-10th-most- popular-programming-language

  For the second time in six months, Perl has re-entered the Top 10 of the TIOBE index, causing people to ask why a language that seemed to have been sidelined for a long time is experiencing a resurgence. Here are some reasons for its enduring appeal.  https://www.i-programmer.info/news/222-perl/18308-perl-rebounds-in-tiobe-index-why.html
