I think you may be misinterpreting the silence. Although the OP makes a very positive offer of his efforts, he does not communicte it very well. Unfortunately, he starts off with a litany of "what is wrong with..." which tends to turn people away before they get to the proposal itself. FWIW, the core group of helpers posting here is generally hroic in its patience and energy, with an emphasis on the former. While I cetainly agree that new members should read the FAQ and at least skim the archives before asking a repetitive question, that is somewhat to be expected on a list targeted toward beginners. On this mailing list, we expect a certain amount of repitition. Some of us may remind posters that they should read the archives and other traffic on the list, but that is usually not the top priority. The most consistent advice we provide is: use strict; use warnings; and this approach, at least for those who have real potential for success as programmers, bears good fruit. Once a student learns to accept the guidance of that harsh but fair taskmaster, the compiler, he or she hits upon a treasury of assistance immediately in front of his or herself. So what exactly is learn.perl.org, anyway? I am subscribed to, and received this message through, the beginners-perl mailing list, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
