Makes sense. How do we drum up business?
I went to a local traning firm and offered to teach classes on Perl.
The coordinators immediate (and breathlessly excited) response was "Do
you teach Java?"
Grrr.....
I could do Perl classes, for beginners to code or hardened veterans of
most other languages (yes, even C++ ;o)
I don't think I know enough yet to take people's money for mod_perl or
Apache in general, but I don't *want* to teach Java. What should I do
do convince people that Perl is a Good Thing?
Maybe if we offered suitcase classes on sites like monster.com?
