I've never even considered perl.org a proper website, rather a placeholder with some content. Much like linux.com was before it was redesigned.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36345871.post-77383100023351359752009-08-11T11:26:07.997-07:002009-08-11T11:26:07.997-07:00Thanks for the link!

But I do appreciate the grant proposal - it goes in the right direction for sure. We'll see how effective it will be with the site owners - there is the danger of the same thing as described in http://use.perl.org/~kid51/journal/39349<br /><br />But anyway I am hoping to get some nice designs for Catalyst::Example::InstantCRUD and HTML::FormHandler forms.zbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04636763782334128869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36345871.post-62266816622667683732009-08-11T10:56:31.276-07:002009-08-11T10:56:31.276-07:00mo: You definitely should comment on http://news....mo: You definitely should comment on http://news.perlfoundation.org/2009/08/2009q3_grant_proposal_improve.html then.<br /><br />PmPmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05117950909580615426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36345871.post-83850831808258721442009-08-11T10:53:42.623-07:002009-08-11T10:53:42.623-07:00Things move a lot slower than I'd like them to...Things move a lot slower than I'd like them to move but there is some progress.

We all now that Perl sucks at marketing but no one is taking action.<br /><br />The hole http://*.perl.org namespace consists of ugly looking pages (except perldoc.perl.org which looks just great!). Every time I visit use.perl or perlmonks I feel like I'm back at the beginning of the internet.<br /><br />Times New Roman, really?<br /><br />I bet if any of the maintainers of such sites would ask for people do to an redesign, there would be some reaction to it. But no one is asking for it!mohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16572874972361942994noreply@blogger.com
