Despite my (humorously intended) first reply, I think that you are quite right and that Perl Ambassadorship is indeed a worthy objective. I suspect that many of us are so comfortable in the nurturing and knowledgable envioronment of the Monastery that we seldom venture out to visit some of the wilder congregations of Perl users.

For those monks who feel inclined to do a little outreach, I'd suggest that taking along a bible (full of links back to the Monastery) will not only provide enlightenment to the more impoverished members of the Perl community, but may lead some of them back here to the benefit of us all.

Perl is Huffman encoded by design.
