In my opinion, the biggest reason to promote something along these lines is: it can allow someone to pop in and *quickly and easily* see who needs help on what. That is, I'm (often) more interested in the unresolved questions than the ones that have been beaten to death. When I've got a lot of time, I'll sift through more stuff... but sometimes you just want to pop in (or push), see if there's anything that's not being answered, and pop out.

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).
