Unless it's hidden, I'm not finding any obvious link there to the
defacto standard location for Perl beginners, <http://learn.perl.org>.
many important content and links are missing. As far as I'm concerned a link
to learn.perl.org should be added very soon, at the very least because it

I think this represents broken integrity on your part, since you
appear to be trying to replace learn.perl.org, not supplement it, so
you're attempting to fracture the community, not enhance it.
Just a note: while being a perlmeme.org contributor I am by no means amappear to be trying to replace learn.perl.org, not supplement it, so

leading this project. I'm sorry if I gave this impression, but my intention
in the original message was to just publicize perlmeme.org. I believe Simon

I believe they'll gladly accept any good patches to the site, either from
Randal or from someone else.
If you add a prominent link to learn.perl.org, I will withdraw my
complaint.
OK. Just note that perlmeme.org is a very different site that learn.perl.orgcomplaint.
(and to some extent perl-begin.berlios.de) and they both fill different
niches. I'm still looking for more contributors for perl-begin, including
people who can populate its wiki with useful content:

Thanks again!
