It might be late, but let me also add my 2c to the discussion.

I'd include a link to www.perl.org  and probably ask for subdomains on perl.org
and setup redirection just as http://moose.perl.org has.

For DBIx::Class I'd probably talk to the http://dbi.perl.org/ folks to
make it more
prominent on that web site and include the http://dbi.perl.org/ on the beer mat.
Especially as I think we are trying to promote general solutions to people who
are probably not Perl developers.

Also http://kensho.perl.org

BTW I think the Catalyst picture is way better than the other two. So
if someone
could improve those two...

Oh and the last note, maybe you could also create a batch for Padre?
you know, the Perl IDE?
