certification is the goal. I don't know how to get there. I thought maybe some folks on the list might be able to come up with an answer if we put our heads together and brainstorm. My only gripe is that it never gets to that point of an actual brainstorm. Instead, some people feel the need to bring up socialists and fractured communities, and now your demand that I do it myself (dont ask, just do it), before an actual brainstorming bazaar can occur. My question is "what if someone provided certification that was free to programmers but caused the corporate world to adopt perl?" I never claimed to have the answer. I was asking the list an open ended question. Must you stand in the way of some people even having a simple conversation about it? This list is boiling down to the lowest common denominator. Unless everyone agrees to allow the conversation, a single person can obstruct the whole thing. _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list Boston-pm@mail.pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
