Re: Help with updating a Perl Resources sticky thread at a web developer forum?

Under your Perl modules heading, I would add randyk's Browse and search CPAN. I often find its search capabilities superior, and Win32 PPM packages are listed in the module descriptions. randyk is also very responsive to requests for new PPMs (within reasonable limits).

HTH,

Ok, I've got kobe's search and through that I found the CPAN FAQ that also seems to double as a pretty damn good resource in general. In the thread, someone asked "where does a newbie start?" I think I've got that covered now as far as PM tuts, Small Quests for a Beginner, general FAQ and places to get modules in general. I'm probably going to keep this going for this week for monk input (so until Friday 19 or Sat 20 March) before submitting what I have as a sort of RFC at the forums. After that point, it's probably going to be out of my hands. Thanks again, everyone. It's starting to look like something respectable.	[reply]
