Never heard of Everything before now. It is interesting the 'Best of the Week' top node is one discussing the urgent need to modernize the look of the web site or risk irrelevancy.

Marketing and encouraging the use of Perl is a worthy goal. Monks mentor here all day 24/7 and I think it is great. There have been many calls to improve the site. Would it actually appease anyone or gain new members? I'm not exactly sure. I'm not a professional programmer, usually. But if I do decide to get a full time job using Perl, or strike out on my own using Perl creating value for others, I would like a job to be there, or for any potential client to not cringe if I said the word.

In short, The Church of Perl should glorify Perl to the highest power, amen. I also would volunteer time, talent, and/or money to the project to see specific goals being carried out.
