perl.org outage

One of our remaining single-point-of-failure-servers is doing it's duty demonstrating to us why we really should get rid of the last single-point-of-failures.  Our console server is down, too (arrgh!), so no ETA yet but we'll get it fixed as soon as possible.

Update 8.30 PST - the troubled server is coming back now and we'll prioritize our plans to get things off this box.  (It is among other things our shared NFS server from back at a time when saving a couple of gigabytes was worth the pain of NFS; obviously that's not true anymore).

A new look for perl.org

To match the massive advances in Perl over the last few years, www.perl.org has been brought into the modern era. www.perl.org has been completely redesigned, making it clearer and easier to use.  All the content has been reviewed and brought up-to-date to provide links and other helpful resources for both new and experienced Perl programmers.

Thanks to www.foxtons.co.uk for donating time from Leo Lapworth, Stephen Morgan, and Cameron Richmond!
