This sounds very interesting, and is a good chance to improve the reputation of Perl in general and CGI::Application in particular. Are there people here are already in Europe in representing Perl / CGI::App? Rhesa? Cees, interested in visiting the family over there? :) I think we should make it a priority to get a team over there. I expect some businesses and organizations would be interested in helping to covers costs to make sure Perl was well represented there. The one thing about the 30 hour deadline is that it would be tempting to stay awake for the whole time, which I would be horrible at. Of course, if Rhesa is on the team, he's already on a different schedule anyway. :) >From the requirements posted, it sounds like a graphic designer / usability person would also be helpful to have on the team, regardless of the language.
