I didn't intend to incite drama. :) My suggestions are just my own opinions, and I reserve the right to be outvoted by the prevailing trends, or vetoed by the owner of the code (you).

I mentioned Perl Best Practices earlier. The book is great but not because it has 256 very good suggestions. No, it has 256 good morsels of food for thought. In the years since it was written some of the ideas took hold, others were shown to take us down a path toward madness, and some are hotly debated. I don't think my advice is any better. :)

  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
