OK, thanks. I guess I can give you my password, but the best way would be for
Gabor ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) to give you a username+password there.

Not offline - online. For the Perl meetings. I need someone to publicise it on
Linux-IL, Hackers-IL, Whatsup, Linmag, etc.

No, that's not necessary.
You may have lost context. Until now, the Perl mongers had me as their sole
publicity officer and their web-site maintainer. However, now I find that I
have much better things to do with my time. It is not very time consuming,
but still annoying. I've grown past that.
So we're looking for a volunteer.

Shlomi Fish
