Re^3: New Feature For Simple Search

a trusted, motivated person

There's the rub. Motivated people are rare, and trusted people far rarer. The intersection of the two sets is vanishingly small.

Even so, some gods are fairly active in site improvement initiatives. Corion deserves special recognition for the work he's done in trying to upgrade the database and the version of mod_perl used by PerlMonks. He's also been very good about applying my patches. Corion++.

Between the mind which plans and the hands which build, there must be a mediator... and this mediator must be the heart.

Maybe we need a sign over the suggestion box. I know Corion is on here a lot contributing. This is no slight to those who do contribute. Just throwing out there that if things are deteriorating, it might be time to search for more personnel. And there is a problem on this site related to performance and usability that we'd all like to see addressed, and I say that in as polite words as I can. As it stands now, we are circumventing perlmonks to get at perlmonks content, and I think that is what the OP is pointing out.	[reply]
