Part of what I love so much about this place is that you can get advice which in tangential to Perl. If you couldn't then a bookshelf of Perl books would be roughly equal in value. Since you can get architecture, compiler, platform, interface, glued-languages, DB, templates, even the odd CSS and such, almost all the advice top notch, this place is unbeatable; and Perl-like in its omnivorous nature.
