This is quite a good idea, and something worthy of some collaborative effort as well.
Some suggestions: - Put the work in a public code repo. Github would be my personal choice, since it makes this sort of thing *very* easy to collaborate on, and is already a widely accepted code-hosting platform. - Write the docs first. Worry about what p5p will think about it later. It seems that efforts like this fall prey to politics and bikeshedding *far* too often. - Encourage people to offer alternatives. TIMTOWTDI also means that different people have different ideas on what is appropriate for newcomers. Perhaps with several different approaches, we can test what works best (by pointing folks to the docs from #perl/#perl-help/perl-beginners@) and hopefully begin to converge on something that fullfils the goals of this effort. -- -- Steve Scaffidi <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
