We already have a "PerlMonks for newbies". It's called PerlMonks. And Hey, you've found it already!

I can only see disadvantages in offering a PerlAspirent web site:

Fewer newbie questions generating traffic at PerlMonks and therefore less interest in the site
Mentors with less experience providing less understanding of poorly asked questions and poorer answers
Confusion over where to post questions and double posting
Less incentive to improve PerlMonks interface

Ok, that is an extreme stance than is really warranted

Points for wishing to help, but splitting the effort is not the way to do it in this case.

Perl's payment curve coincides with its learning curve.

Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!

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.

Please read these before you post! —

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
