in reply to Why does PerlMonks rock?

Start it, point us at it, blog about it, and tweet about it. Then, sit back and wait 6 months. It will either grow or it won't.

My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?

    I wouldn't agree with sitting back... I think you have to work tirelessly to create a community, at least early on. Get as much feedback from those who begin to join in, and modify things appropriately.
