in reply to Initiate Observations

Can one become a saint by being a true advocate and supporter of a language, even if his/her skills are still very much in development?

The answer is yes. I have been hanging around here for almost two years now, and there are others who are at a lower rank than me, yet can code rings around me. As our fearless leader puts it, "1000000 XP and a dollar will buy you a cup of coffee". Part of the reason I made saint, is that I participate regularly on this site, by logging in and voting. If you are interested in other ways of getting more involved with Perl, locate a Perl Mongers group in your area. You can also check out the official Perl website as well.
