I do know that I (no longer) have the time to get it started, nor to organise it. I had spoken to some people privately about 6 months ago, and I know that subsequently at least one I'd spoken with was aware that I no longer had time and so wasn't able to carry it forward. A couple of others have asked since, and I have said that I wasn't able to carry it forward. I made no application to TPF for funds to run this, because I hadn't got very far before I ran out of time, certainly not enough to need money. I would be very happy for anyone else to take the idea and run with it (I had hoped that that was obvious from the start). Perl shouldn't stall just because I run out of time.
