gcilou: <mayhem> we need a logo for the officebrainz project. :) <- i think that is what Freso was referring to with his "weird kissyface emoticon"

mayhem, bitmap: maybe put a disclaimer up with the quote by CallerNo6's friend

"This is the cleanest Perl code I've ever seen" or whatever :p

but the things that make it clean (catalyst, moose) have a learning curve too

officebrainz project meaning the "metabrainz office to get people in the door" type project or is there something else
2017-02-08 03913, 2017
mayhem
gcilou: that one

reosarevok
I dunno. I managed
2017-02-08 03954, 2017
reosarevok
With a lot of help, sure
2017-02-08 03958, 2017
reosarevok
But still
2017-02-08 03907, 2017
gcilou
So like a MetaBrainz logo + "Office" mashup like community and tickets or like a wholly new logo?

Most of these people are actual programming majors, they should manage fine :p

I was thinking logo.

though we don't even display the full logo on the home page as we should. at least this gives us reason to put it up there.

well, if MeB didn't have a bunch of python/javascript projects already, I imagine people would be open to the perl stuff
2017-02-08 03920, 2017

I'd say we should have at least one Perl based idea.
2017-02-08 03944, 2017
mayhem
maybe we need to have some sort of disclaimer on the ideas page: "Don't be afraid of perl, we can help you!"
2017-02-08 03956, 2017
Freso
There might be some weirdo outcast student out there who just can't get enough of Perl and is disappointed that no GSoC org.s will let them use that language.

Fly the Perl flag! Don't fear The Curse of the Black Perl!
2017-02-08 03904, 2017
reosarevok
Or something
2017-02-08 03906, 2017
mayhem
very much along the lines of what reosarevok just suggested
2017-02-08 03906, 2017

CallerNo6: maybe you could have a look at that? improve verbiage on the ideas page to make perl more appealing/less crazypants?
2017-02-08 03901, 2017
CallerNo6
I can try. Hopefully I won't convince myself.
2017-02-08 03910, 2017

that is a danger. :)
