Yes, I had given up on the real possibility of dotnetmonks or anything nearly as open and supportive of the Perl community.

My dream? Microsoft develops a Windows version of Perl that will come built into their OS, and adds the appropriate levels of support for Perl into IIS, and the .NET infrastructure. It's a dream that I don't ever expect to see come true.

My only remaining hope is that the HORRIBLY BROKEN state of Perlscript in ASP.NET at the moment is fixed and more Perl programmers start realizing that the way ASP.NET is set up is a much better framework to design web applications in(If you're working in C#/VB.NET/one of the other REAL supported languages), if you could combine that a more powerful language like Perl, you'd have the best of both worlds.
