Perl Activists win White Camel Awards

The first White Camel awards were presented to some well-deserving folks at the Perl Conference 3.0. Tom Christiansen, Kevin Lenzo and Adam Turoff were the three winners. Click below for details.

The awards were sponsered by Perl Mongers, O'Reilly and sourceXchange-so hats off to them for good work.

Tom Christiansen won the Perl Advocacy award for his work on the documentation, while Kevin Lenzo won the Perl Community Award for his work in "Yet Another Perl Conference" creation/design. Adam Turoff won the Perl User Group Award, for his efforts in making the first group, helping in Perl Mongers and encouraging formation of many other user groups.

Keep up the good work, guys.

I'd be happy if Slashdot were like eBay. eBay gets hundreds (if not thousands) of times more traffic than Slashdot does, yet the two sites have comparable reliability.

Congratulations Tom! Really!

I don't know who these other turkeys are ragging on you, but they don't count. They're just pissed because you won't fit their tiny mold.

And as for the charges of your being impatient and full of yourself, well, duh! I bet you're lazy too! I expect nothing less. It's perl after all. Keep up the good work!
