Hiya, I wasnt expecting this but here is my $.02,

Eric Raymond, is interesting but his contribtution is going to cause a 
lot more
grief than contracting revenue and salary bonuses.

Perl is frozen at 5.5.3 for me, which is not a problem.  I would like a 
virtual
machine built into the kernel, but more than anything, my industry 
(unix) needs
a rock solid kernel to get control of the operations.
