I don't want to get too far ahead of things as there doesn't appear to be a for sale sign on the PPT lawn yet, but I think this is a great idea for a number of reasons (leaving aside the fact that I think the PPT is a worthy project on its own):

• It would be great to be able to point people to a solid product of all the meditations on Perl
• This is not a monolithic beast of a product, but a large number of sometimes even tiny bit of useful code, something that could serve as tutorial fodder for all manner of monks
• It would be well in keeping with the tradition of monasteries producing carefully made products
• It would provide meaningful and productive activity for those who just bang around here all day praying for clever questions to answer, with nothing better to do that chat and avoid their real lives ;-)
• The distribution might even include a note about the Offering Plate

Having said that, if this were to go ahead it should probably have a prominent location somewhat separated from the rest of the Monastery, and a group of monks would have to be appointed to supervise development, maintenance and testing, and I'd be happy to offer whatever assistance I could.
