Perl Geek Code

[pne]

(This should, perhaps, go to pnedev instead, but I'm putting it here so that maybe frobisher will see it.)

Damian pointed us to The Perl Geek Code on london-list. I was just trying to figure out what my Perl Geek Code is when I came to the "MO" (Perl Monger) category ... one of the options is "MO+++ : I founded and/or head a Perl Monger group or I am David H. Addler [sic]". Bwahaha! :) And interesting that it's a step higher than "MO++ : I participate in at least 2 Perl Monger groups" :D

Just how many Perl Monger groups are you a member of, dha?

(Addendum: the notes for CO++++ are also interesting, though this time what amused me was the inclusion of acme in that rating.)

Ah... the in-jokes. A fun piece to read.

Edit: Here's what I've come up with.

I just got distracted and went through making my own Perl Geek Code - it's a lot more confusing than the real geek code, I think - those sub-categories don't make life easy, and there are a few categories where I'm between ratings. Some of the stuff has nothign to do with perl, either, and I don't see why it's in there! Amusing, though:)

CO++++

acme has CO++++ since he started (with help from Greg and davorg) the whole YAPC::Europe thing.

I bugged Michel Rodriguez about an update to the PGC, and he said he have a look when he's less busy - maybe later this week.

Mark.

Ah. I assumed he got it because he attends every conference known to mankind.
