Wow! "Excellent!" I'm truely humbled. For posterity, I
should say a few things. First, I agree with MJ Dominus
strongly and try to steer clear of suggesting that
anyone ever do anything that would require more typing
rather than less. Second, I'm in touch with the creator
of http://www.patternsinperl.com. His site has been around
longer and writes for a broader audiance. He suffers
from a problem that I don't, though: employement. Third, http://wiki.slowass.net suffers from a horrid lack of
feedback. The few people that wander in always manage to
stumble on the the pages that are merely placeholders
then wander off as quickly as they came in. This is causing
a serious chicken-and-egg problem where I don't want to
tell anyone about it because it probably sucks really bad
in a way that I can't see, but no one is going to tell me
exactly how it sucks so I can improve it unless they see it.
Argh! Instead of stumbling around randomly (and this
goes against every web-intuitive I've developed in the
last 6 years), do yourself (and me) a favor and just download the whole damn thing.
Last but not least (I think?), its a Wiki. And its GNU.
Its GNU-Wiki! That means its (almost) as much mine as
yours in rights *and* access. Anyone can come along and
edit anything. If you hate something, fix it. If you
have a comment, log it. If you have hate, fix me with a
comment. You get the idea. I feel like one of those
street lunatics that makes such an eccentric performance
that everyone goes out of their way *not* to notice him.
150 pages in, I've gotten *0* feedback before the "excellent" I just now stumbled across =) Cheers, -scott scott@slowass.net
