    So when this all gets sorted out -- do you plan on releasing your own binary Perl for the rest of us to us on Windows OS's? Or is this strictly for your use only?

    Because if I had to guess, I would say that no, no you don't plan on others using this. See ... people like AdamK make things for others such as yourself to use, for free. I can't think of anything more negative than using a forum like Perlmonks to bash an open source project. I mean, that sounds like something that someone who wants open source projects to actually fail would want to do, no?

    And to answer your question -- yes, I am always surprised to hear your opinions, Interpid. They truly go against everything i was taught about just being nice to people -- not that I am, but i think i am more surprised that you seem surprised when people don't agree with you. I liken it to walking onto a train track and being surprised when the train doesn't stop for you.
