Thanks for the suggestion. The Perl Apprenticeship site:

1. Has had 16 projects (6 of which look like stubs) posted in three years. There is no indication of how many "apprentices" are active on the site, I suspect because this figure is also very low. This low usage should be accounted for.

2. Is not CPAN specific. Very few of the projects are CPAN modules.

3. Implies that anyone having the time available to make a contribution is an apprentice and anyone having/spotting a need is highly skilled. I do not see this connect.

Not shooting the Apprentice site down, I think it's a good idea. It just (A) hasn't been used and (B) may not be the best way to address what I am talking about. -Andrew.
