Hi there,

As you may know, we plan to publish an advent calendar in order to promote
Dancer.
The idea is to publish one article per day form the first of december to
the 25th.

We have set up a repository on GitHub dedicated to host the collaborative
work around that. Any help is welcome and very much appreciated.

Currently we have 23 articles ideas, 7 of them are "assigned" (someone
volunteered to write the article, but did not started yet), 3 of them are
"pending" (the article is almost finished but need a review).

We have one moth left and lots remain to be done if we want to be able to
publish our advent calendar.

I invite you, as a Dancer user/developer to fork the project:
http://github.com/PerlDancer/advent-calendar-2010 and start helping us. You
can also request on the list a write-access to that repo, we'll add you to
the team and you'll be able to push your changes directly here.

You can either review one of the article in the pending directory (typos
are there, you can be sure ;) or start picking an article idea in the
README file, setting the flag to "A" for telling other writers not to pick
this one.

FYI you can build pretty HTML renderings of the article with the following
command:

     $ perl build/tools/build_html.pl pending

You'll find the HTML files in build/html/

With your help we can do it, but if we're too few, this might be
difficult.

Thanks a lot!
