Hi Sine, I would say you are aspiring too much for a beginner.
Although your node got downvoted, I second that: while it's remarkably good that the OP wants to improve his Perl skills by contributing free help on existing projects, it's almost certainly a little bit premature as of a very beginner. Sometimes good will is not enough. He may want to improve his skills in some other way first, e.g. like GrandFather suggested, and then he would be ready to further improve them the way he's thought of in a manner that would be productive both for him and for the projects themselves. IMHO that would be a more efficient use of his good will; otherwise the attempt may even result in frustration...

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.
