Besides... Perlmonks is declining in activity. I for one welcome anyone who's willing to ask questions here

Perhaps we needed to ask, and still need to ask: "What would need to happen for PerlMonks to grow in activity?" (as distinct from "grow inactivity"!)

Other than The Monastery, I know little about other Perl communities and gatherings. Do wiser Monks believe that the majority of serious1 Perl coders frequent here? If they do, then the question is wider and becomes: "What would have to happen to get Perl to become a more universally used language?"

1 define "serious" however you like...
