If you are reading this and you are experienced with Perl, then your community needs you.

You see the heroic work being done by our devs Proposed Moderation Rework Experiment and think that couldn't be you? Think again Comrade - you too could be a SN hero!

Seriously - we need some Perl skilled people to offer some time. It doesn't need to be a massive commitment, a few hours here and there to squash a bug or two as it suits would be just fine.

You can contact me by email (above), or you'll find the usual reprobates malingering around #soylent on our irc server.

    Definitely a feature ("embrace the lack of use strict by default"). Change $notfy to $notify and you get a whole other experience

    But by default Perl doesn't check you've declared variables, which is dumb.

    Don't get me wrong, I love perl, and use it all over the place, but I'm a terrible programmer, and write terrible code.
