    I can't think of any new quests, either. So the answer is obvious...

    We need a new quest asking for ideas for new quests!

                    - tye (or not)

      Well, let's see here...

      • Perl 6
      • Parrot
      • A Perl 5 native compiler
      • New Perlmonks engine written from scratch
      • Preparations for serious Perl 6 advocacy
      • Fund raising so that at bare minimum we can provide grants for Larry, Dan, and Damian. Hopefully others as well.
      • Examine game programming and other graphical bindings in Perl.
      • Develop better audio manipulation modules.

      And the list goes on. There isn't a shortage of "Quests" just a shortage of people willing to step up to the plate and take a swing at them. Whether or not Perlmonks is a proper forum for this is another question as well.

    How about a quest to add new voting options:

    "Hit-and-run post"
    "Offtopic"
    "No content"
    "Very cool idea"
    "What are you smoking?"
    "Engrish"
    "Overly verbose"
    "Bad humor"
    "Larry would be proud"


    etc, etc.

    It's just a joke :-)

    For example, ....???

    --- print map { my ($m)=1<<hex($_)&11?' ':''; $m.=substr('AHJPacehklnorstu',hex($_),1) } split //,'2fde0abe76c36c914586c';
