I don't think that's the answer. The question (as I understand it) is more how to increase the "brand awareness" and improve the image of Perl, not how to help developing Perl 6. Though of course it's also important. I don't have a good answer though.

All I can and will do is force an update to the "marketing web" for the project I work on to give Perl the credit it deserves. (In case the recruiters wondered what is behind the system that delivers their ads to job boards.) And do a presentation for fellow developers in other teams on the Perl based tools we have and what could the Monster build process have been if only someone paid attention. A bit too late since they go the ASP.Net direction even regarding the messagizing/i18n, but a little envy can never hurt.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
