Seeing how in the few months that I have been hanging around the monestary there seems to be almost every other week concern for the growing number of saints that are soon to rise here, I wonder if this would be viable:
Seeing that it can be fairly easy to reach significant experience here in the monestary without knowing much perl- (or at least feeling like I do) I would suggest that to make Saint- or perhaps a level above that, a monk has to publish something that the other Saints vote on as "worthy" or not for sainthood.
This publication could be some code- meaning something obsfucated, something that works really cool, a mod they wrote, or perhaps we have them write a tutorial, article for a magazine, through book review.
I know there would be a lot to work out in this system, what level do we start doing this for?
What are the judging criteria etc?
Can we appeal to someone if a "Project" gets booted?
Just a thought though....

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).
