Fellow SPUGsters,

It's just about time to hand out the 2004 White Camel awards in
recognition of non-technical contributions to the Perl community.
As examples of past dudes and deeds deemed deserving of this
distinction (can't believe I just wrote that!), here are some
past winners:

* Tom Christiansen, for developing a great set of docs and making
them available for widespread use

* Kevin Lenzo, for his work on creating the YAPC conventions (now a
worldwide phenomenon)

As a recipient myself, I sit on the committee that elects the
next batch of White Camels, and as usual, we're looking for help
in identifying the "unsung heros" of the community, who are doing
great stuff for Perl, but not getting much recognition for it.

Anybody care to nominate somebody?

-Tim
