You wanted to find a way to make Perl more widely accepted. Had the conversation been allowed to takes its natural course, it might have petered out quickly or it might have come up with a novel idea. But instead, you got sucked into defending yourself. Had the conversation stayed on topic and not gone into political science, world history, and end-of-the-perl-world scenarios, the whole discussion would have been no big deal. I jumped in mainly because no one would let you even think about having a conversation about certification. And I eventually blew my stack on the list, and I apologize for the cursing and name calling that I put on the list. But you shouldn't apologize for a legitimate question just because of how people reacted to it. > I'm still interested in helping to communicate Perl to the world, but I > think all these discussions should move off the list, at least for now. Yeah, I think it's been beaten to the point where anyone who may have wanted to brainstorm is too exhausted to care right now. I know I am. _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list Boston-pm@mail.pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
