in thread applying for a Perl Foundation grant

is it too late to put in a proposal for this year then? as far as reputation, i'm a friar here (when i'm not anonymous), i have a module on cpan, and i've been leading an open-source perl project for about a year. would any of this be useful in proving my worthiness?

    It's certainly not too late. Your perlmonks reputation doesn't mean anything as such--the standard refrain of "XP doesn't matter" is true. :) The project and module will certainly help demonstrate your skills, for better or worse, though there's still the issue of need, both of which, along with the proposed project itself, get weighed against the other applicants.
      thanks a lot, elian!
