I really think that this would have to be a major undertaking. You can't implement something like this half-heartidly. And in doing what it would take to do this right (IMO), PM would become this. It wouldn't be a part of PerlMonks, it would be PerlMonks.

Now wether or not that's what people want, I can't answer. But PerlMonks woulnd't be the same anymore.. and I belive that what it would gain in material would be lost in atmosphere.

Now something like what AgentM mentioned would fit better into what PerlMonks is now. Free chat type classes or anything like that.

For what it's worth..
