The idea of an "Off Topic" section sounds good! For example, I had been thinking for some time of a post asking monks how they found work - particularly short term contract work. But where to post? A moderated cork-board would be most welcome.
One of the greatest things about this site is the community nature of it, something which is missing from so many other types of communities and something long gone from Usenet.
Whatever we can do here to enahnce the community spirit would, I think, be appreciated by many monks.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
