Because Sneexie loves us, and knows that while we all have Perl in common, most of us don't have the luxury of revolving our lives around it--we have other jobs that we happen to get to use Perl at. Since O'Reilly is a known reliable source for all kinds of techie information and a huge sponsor of all things Perl, it's a reasonable thing for him to pass special deals on to us in case they interest us. They support us by giving us programming languages, reference materials, and Larry; in exchange, we buy their books. It's not a bad deal. If the extra list traffic bothers you, maybe we can convince him to put the keyword "non-Perl" in the subject line and your mail software can filter it. I'll probably keep reading them, though, and I'd wager that the first Perl utility for managing Win2k registry will be based on this book just announced. j P.S. Bill probably cringes when I call him Sneexie. I don't recommend anyone who lives within a thousand miles try this. Nate, I guess you're okay. :) Jax.PM Moderator's Note: This message was posted to the Jacksonville Perl Monger's Group listserv.

That way members who want to see ONLY Perl related content can filter these postings out. A simple matter. Unfortunately I have already lost two members who felt I was spamming my own list. What I find incredible is that just about everyone is in 'read-only mode' (lurking) and no one has posted in months. The list isn't dead just not being posted too... My own opinion is that the Jax.PM membership would be interested in these: Perl, PHP, Apache, mod_perl, Linux, Unix (I forward non-Open Source related works as I feel, as another member stated, that not everything we do is about Perl, but Perl is used in the equation - in other words these other books are of some import to other members.) Should other members feel that even prefacing these posting with NON-PERL to be offensive, please so state at this time or forever hold your peace. :) Also, if you do wish to re-align our profile with ORA, please so state in your comments.
