The irrepressible Michael Schwern has launched a new wiki devoted to all things Perl 5, and has invited everyone to contribute:
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
Perl 5 needs a place to collect its community knowledge which is currently scattered around in penny packets on perl mongers sites, scads of perl.org hosts, mailing list archives, man pages and books.
</p>
<p>
This sort of thing is handled well by a wiki. Perl 5 now has one:
</p>
<p>
<a href="http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/">http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/</a>
</p>
</blockquote>
<p>
As Schwern notes, however, launching the wiki is just the beginning:
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
It is hungry for content. What sort of content? Any sort of Perl 5 related content. Really. Anything you think someone else might find useful that would otherwise be lost in the noise of the Internet.
</p>
<p>
One simple task you can do right now is add a module to one of the lists of Recommended CPAN Modules:
</p>
<p>
<a href="http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?recommended_cpan_modules">http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?recommended_cpan_modules
</a>
</p>
