Happy to: the only place in the documentation that says "PERL" is perlfaq1, which says "never write 'PERL'".Not actually, in the version of the faq you were linking to. But I already pointed that out.
I don't care if you think "Perl" is an acronym, but that doesn't make "PERL" the name of the language.See, that's the point. The justification the current version of the perlfaq uses for not writing it as PERL is the claim it's not an acronym. What's someone to do with a statement of which the premises appears not to be true?
I won't hire anyone who doesn't know the name of the languageIf someone is good, and appears to fit the rest of the company, I hire them. For all I care, he spells the name of the language as Python. OTOH, I would not hire someone who makes a big deal about the capitalization of the name of a language.
