As if by magic, perl-5.8.0-RC1 has perldoc perlintro. It is a nice quick start guide, but not enough to be a tutorial. It doesn't handle negative array indexes (which would prevent newbies from using $foo[@foo - 2]), does not explain "context" well enough and a beginner's tutorial should have _some_ OO, or at least something about how 3rd party modules work with it. But yes, perlintro (I still rely on this site being updated soon) is a very good start, and I will recommend beginners reading it.
