I agree with Chris. It started in 2008, with Jordan Sissel taking inspiration from the Perl Advent Calendar (http://www.perladvent.org/). The idea is that the community should come together and build high quality content, with one post per day, through the normal advent calendar (although there's no religious undertones to anything at all, it's just an excuse to get people together), along with a "bonus" entry on the 25th.
I've contributed a couple of things to it over the years, and I'm really glad to see that it's still going. Now is the time to get involved with the process, because it fills up relatively quickly (at least, it has the past couple of years). --Matt On Mon, Nov 3, 2014 at 8:00 AM, Christopher Webber <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Michael, > > Sorry for my post last night without context.
