Indeed you did talk to me and gave me a perspective that
I don't think anyone else could have. In turn when I
talked about the reaction from experienced monks, you
certainly did more than just cross my mind.
As I said privately to you, I am impressed by what this
site aims for and what it has accomplished. There
certainly are prominent members of the Perl community
that I simply could not see successfully fitting in here.
Unlike you, I do not have a sense of the history of this
place. But like you I don't know how it should be run.
So far on the whole it seems to have done a pretty good
job. That is just a first impression though. :-)
I certainly would rather that people looking for good
examples showed up here instead of at Matt's Script

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.
