  Same here. Testers?
 
 perl-builders?

Or to be more whimsical:

perl-night-shift
perl-night-build

It probably needs a name that'll both indicate its role and avoid confusion
with 'porters' (who do most of the 'building' to the untrained eye).

 I dunno; I dislike smoking, but I like the idea of "smoking-camels" or
 something.  :)

Umm, I recall something from my geography lessons about nomadic tribes
smoking camel dung. I can't remember now if it was on the fire or in
the mouth (yeach). Anyway...

perl-dung
perl-droppings

Umm, maybe not. Er...

perl-smoke-trail  (thinking of the night-by-night progress, kind'a)

I dunno. I'm off...

Tim.
