Ok. So is that sort of an answer to my question about where these changes are being made, like a GitHub repo? Because if so, I'm not really better informed yet :-)

    From Can I get the PerlMonks source code?

    No. ... all of the code and data lives in the database, except for a very small kernel of static perl modules and scripts. In order to replicate PerlMonks, you'd have to get not only those few files but also all of the code stored in the database, as well as the infrastructural data records (lookup tables and whatnot). ...

    If your objective is to contribute to the maintenance of the PerlMonks site itself, you can. You simply have to join the pmdev group.

      ...which requires one to be level 9. I am level 4. Still, thanks for the information.

      Does this mean that PM doesn't have a dev/staging environment, and everything is done on live?

[reply]

        At one time there was a dev environment, but i dont think it is operational anymore. The integrated maint tools in PM mean that many changes can be relatively safely done against the live system. Surprisingly. :-)
