In http://perlmeme.org/start_here/our_motivations.html there's a lot of talk about dealing with "anti-Perl memes" and, essentially, how to market Perl. Given that, I can only wonder why the site creators didn't bother to contact The Perl Foundation (http://www.perlfoundation.org/) as the latter is always interested in new volunteers with energy and creative ability who are willing to help out on that very topic. And is there any mention of the Perl community? I can't see it there. The site purports to be a resource for "selling" Perl and overcoming the negative reaction many folks have to the language, but the site is little more than a cookbook. How can one market Perl and leave out one of its strongest selling points? Oh, and this is bad, just bad: http://www.perlmeme.org/howtos/subroutines/perl_files.html And can you find the runtime errors on this page's code? http://www.perlmeme.org/howtos/using_perl/display_text_message.html And plenty of little bugs and typos here: http://www.perlmeme.org/tutorials/cgi_script.html There's more and nitpicking seems petty but for a site which has the stated goal of addressing the "many irrational anti-Perl memes", it really needs to get things right.
