Oooh..... Badges instead of XP. Reminds me of boy scouts. My first impression of the site is "information overload"...... remember the old adage about the man who read so many books he ended up knowing nothing?

Honestly I think there are adequate places already to find answers to Perl questions: here, comp.lang.perl.misc, perl.beginners, etc. This would only serve to dilute the time gurus already spend answering Perl questions. And it would further confuse newbies, as to where they should look for answers.

It's great for other languages though.
