I'm not sure what you mean by tl;dr but the formatting is currently crap.  
Right now I'm leaving it text to make it easier to submit to text based systems 
like Slashdot, etc.  I guess we should have a nicely formatted version and a 
reasonable looking text version.  Volunteers that know what nice looking means 
are welcome to give it a go.

Same for the links, not all submission engines allow html.

Please feel free to copy and change as you think.

We really need something, since "Moose" alone mean nothing to most of the 
world.  Willing to hear suggestions.  I'll bring it to the Moose channels as 
well.

I realize marketing and branding means fuck all to most of you, but this is 
really a serious issue.  Perl, Catalyst and Moose don't get 1% of the respect 
and discussion it deserves.  Anti Perl sentiment is beginning to reach a 
tipping point after which we are going to be looking up from a deep dark hole.  
Any help or useful suggestions should be on the table ASAP.  We just finished a 
years worth of effort here, let's find a good way to make it count.
