The Perl community is rapidly running the risk of being
poorly catalogued...
Right now, if you want to find what you want, we now have
the following resources:
comp.lang.perl.misc
various Perl mailing lists
www.perlmonks.org
CPAN
The Perl Scripts Archive
Now, the bottom line, is:
"People want their problem solved, regardless of where in
the world on the internet it is. As it stands now, they
stand a chance of missing information because it is not
topically organized. And of course countless amounts of
information is being regurgitated due to this lack of
categorization."
Thus a common set of keywords needs to be established and
ALL URLs related to a keyword(s) need to be pointed to from
there.
Take Class::DBI
Where do you look? OOP? DBI? Persistence? The answer is:
you should be able to look in any of these places and find
it AND furthermore it relates to web application development
so you should be able to find it there as well.
The amount of Perl facts is roughly constant, but the
propensity for regurgitation is infinite.
