I'm very much against them being "Eric's ... set".

Placing ownership on any one document creates too much inertia.  Placing 
ownership on the set makes it seem like nobody can add anything to the 
series.  As I've said before, this is certainly not a complete set 
(plenty of room to add Moose, Catalyst, DBI, and other topics.)

Are you against having tutorials on the site?  If so, what do you think 
the site's primary purpose should be?

>And even if we -do- turn learn.perl.org into an on-site tutorials site,
>we should probably do it by pulling information from a bunch of the
>already existing tutorials out there as well as your stuff.

Sure.  That is exactly what I've been saying.
