  OK, so I'm sad enough to answer my own post, a quick process of the donations page [perl-foundation.org] to sort by date shows (story posted on slashdot on the 6th):
  
  2002-07-02 : 4
  2002-07-03 : 2
  2002-07-04 : 7
  2002-07-05 : 4
  2002-07-06 : 4
  2002-07-07 : 1
  2002-07-08 : 61
  2002-07-09 : 25
  
  So allowing for normal levels, I'd guess 70 or so slashdot-inspired donations so far ... more people donated than trolled the story ... got to be a healthy sign...
