I'm after case studies where people have used Perl in non-trivial applications that are mission-critical. The goal is to show that Perl is not a toy language, but rather one that all sorts of people rely on every day. The information we'd need to tell the world: - your company and its business - the name and function of a particular Perl application - rough size of the code and its development time - rough idea of how heavily the code is used (number of users) Some glowing comments about how much time/money/pain Perl saved you would also go down well :-) I don't have a deadline, and can work with you to get it done. Would you be interested in participating?
