I thoroughly enjoy and use nodes containing programming style, architecture and other like data and also look for it. I usually only find small bits as side comments in various posts.

I've considered starting a series of nodes to solicit data from talented monks on issues like this, but the OT-ness discussions pretty much derailed my urge :) I'll get over the 'derailed' concept, but it's excellent that you brought it up!

I had titles in mind such as:

It's really more of a list than that. I obviously am aware of the excellent collection of nodes on the CGI issues, but it seemed to me to get it all in one thread or node would be a really excellent resource. Very often what looks like a reasonable way to do something doesn't even closely compare to the answers given by real-world-experienced folks here on PM. And seeing samples in Perl is much preferred in my case. Studying algorithms in texts using languages I'm unfamiliar with isn't always helpful.

I guess I'm in a mode for "what are some commonly accepted best practices for ____?"
