No, it has not been tried, at least not by p5ee. Setting up a mailing list and one web page does not amount to much. If you really want this to work, you need to promote it. You also have to have something to promote, i.e. more than just ideas. This would mean a starter set of modules, a clear set of criteria for how modules are chosen, a procedure for nominating and approving modules, and possibly a separate distribution source which provides ready-to-use binaries or at least a one-shot source download with an automated build script. The p5ee project had no clear goal, and there were many people who wanted to define a new set of APIs rather than choose existing CPAN modules.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
