Actually, I'm going to start submitting them to the archive as a 
work-in-progress.  Maybe within the next week or so and maybe people can 
improve them or add to them as I do them.

I don't think I'll perform any real metrics on them until I get at least 
50% or so done, though, and when I get FreeBSD or Linux running right on 
my computer.

I was thinking of writing my test script in Euphoria if possible since I 
don't know Perl. I guess I could use a Bash script. Unless the shootout 
has the test scripts available, I didn't see them by glancing.

If I stick with it and get FreeBSD or Linux running right I'll see if I 
can run the more common languages.
