You're describing what open source is about. People do this all the time
here on this mailing list and others. If you have some mod_perl code you
are trying to produce, put it up and write an email asking for comments.
You may not get many people reading (most people are quite busy at any
given time) but you will probably get a few.
Just don't post your code to the list itself. It's rude to bloat the mails
on the list. Provide a hyperlink to your annotated code.
