<p>I'm glad to see the [Perl News] up and running again (many thanks to [vroom] for doing this).</p>
<p>One of the reasons it was originally taken out of commission was that many people thought [http://use.perl.org] did a better job of providing Perl-related news. While use.perl.org is an excellent site, it focuses on larger stories and probably wouldn't publish most module releases and other small events. I think [Perl News] would be an excellent place to announce these smaller events</p>
<p>My question is, does the inclusion of voting in the section discourage people from posting their own small news items? Would the section be better off if there wasn't voting in it?</p>
