Ok topic 2. As a competition enthusiast, I think it would be much appreciated to post competition like questions into its own section on PM. It can allow us to see how different people would tackle a situation and challange programers who are sitting around bored (on a teacher strike) looking for something to do Have you seen Seekers of Perl Wisdom? People post a variety of questions, some easy, some hard, some real-world, some conceptual, some closely related to Perl, some only loosely. Then hundreds of people around the world post solutions (or critiques to other people's solutions) in a competition for "XP" -- a form of peer acclaim. It's a great challenge for programmers who are sitting around bored looking for something to do. (grin) On a serious note, if you do organize something in the real world and want swag, I'd suggest approaching TPF or else working through a nearby Perl Mongers group that might have people with connections who can help. -xdg Code written by xdg and posted on PerlMonks is public domain.
