[Pdx-pm] learn.perl.org rework (TPF grant)

Hi all,
I've put some effort into the design and CSS here and posted the first
couple of tutorials:
http://learnperl.scratchcomputing.com/
Compared to the existing learn.perl.org, I completely killed most of
the "news" items and I'm still pondering how to get linked back to the
perldoc.perl.org (possibly sidebars from the tutorial and/or a "further
reading" page of some sort.)
The books are definitely moving off of the front page. Something should
probably be done to link them back through more of the content
(sidebar?) and maybe I'll use some cover thumbnails ala books.perl.org.
As navigation goes, that's still somewhat undecided. I scrapped the
combust scheme to get to this point, and shebangml has lots of nifty
tools for includes and conditional links but I don't want to open all
of the stops (on whatever toolkit) until I know that I'll be able to
deploy with those features. Anybody tried to get combust to run under
e.g. HTTP::Server::Simple?
Anyhow, please feel free to insult my color choices or design. Feedback
on the tutorial content or layout is also welcome. Anybody know a
newbie who could try it with a fresh pair of eyes?
Thanks,
Eric
