Err... might make it a mite more difficult for the average newbie (me) to
follow what's going on.  Some debates leave me fairly glassy-eyed, agreed,
but then i picture 10 Linux professionals/gurus trying to shout an answer in
Perl first.  Maybe not the whole meeting :)

        Can I suggest that we make sure all the questions have 1 (and only
1) right
        answer, that is unquestionable.

        ie. Lets not use the following questions:

        Which is the best text editor?
        Which is the best distro for newcomers?
        Name 3 reasons why emacs is better than vi?
        Which is the best package management system on Linux?
        Name 3 reasons why Debian is purer than Slackware?

        You get the idea ;o)
