This thing doesn't look like it had any input from the perl community at all. There's all sorts of weirdness too. For instance, just looking at http://www.perlglobe.com/all_funcs.html what do they mean by "functions for real @ARRAYs" and "functions for real %HASHes"? And does it bother anyone else that there's a section at the bottom for "functions new in perl5"? More observations: there's an entry for a pod named perltootc (it's been named perltooc for a while now) and perldelta is described as "what's new for perl 5.6.x".

Anyway, I don't see any improvement or benefit here. It looks like someone just grabbed a perl dist and slapped an HTML front end on it. This is hardly comparable to php.net except as an embarassment. I guess PerlGlobe was hoping to generate revenue by click-throughs and posting here was a good way to get people to visit the site.
