the voting average is deflating over the years

Thanks for the reminder! I'd totally forgotten to update my Best Nodes stats over time for a while. Just updated it now and see the current Best Nodes of the Year range is 40-57.

While a best node rep of 57 (for Announcing Perl 7) is outstanding, I see the next best node is only 47 ... so we are in danger of the Best Node of Year dropping below 50 for the first time ever! This is an emergency because Announcing Perl 7 expires next month, on June 24 2021.

Oh, and I see the lowest node at Best Nodes of the Year has never dropped below 40 before, so the two lowest Best Nodes of the Year could also use an upvote or two. ;-)

I also keep a (scrappy) list of similar nodes at: Re: Perl Monks in numbers?
