Fantastic! I spent the weekend looking at Slime & Swank code, and reading "Perl in 20 Pages". For the next few days I'm going to be doing the same - mostly learning Perl. From Friday I am headed to Canada for 10 days & don't plan to touch a computer the whole time :) If I can't manage to contribute code right away, I will volunteer to be #1 cheerleader & tester.
