Yes, I realise access is broken for some unknown reason. If it's urgent, then Gabor can give you a log-in.

For your convenience, here's a copy of r160, 2013-01-15.

This is (not yet) a full list of companies that use Perl in any capacity. If you know of an organisation using Perl, please add it!

If an organisation has its own page on the wiki, you may wish to link to it, otherwise just link to the company website. Try to keep the list in alphabetical order by country. You're encouraged to add your own business.

This might be very controversial - but in the name of brainstorming. This is for people working for those companies - how about putting your name at the companies page - so that people could contact you and ask about the work there when they are considering a job at that company?

This should be reserved for the company homepages, not for websites which are build using perl. See "Websites using Perl"<http://www.perlfoundation.org/static/2.14.7.2/html/index.cgi?websites_using_perl>

One page per continent or country would be better.

Thank you, @daxim! This is an excellent idea but is going to take me some time to get into my workflow.

Until I can do that, if anyone wishes to chew on this issue and merge these two data streams into the Perl_Companies files, just let me know!
