It occurred to me when looking at that question on sorting numbers that it really really would be useful to come out with a printed version of the most useful PerlMonks Q/A sessions. I mean, we are taking Perl Cookbook and the Perl FAQ to another level.
I was developing a Perl framework to edit such a text. The contents of the document would be live, that is, pulled directly from a GET command PerlMonks.ORG and inserted into the body of the book. All of the answerers would get a percentage of book royalties relative to their contribution to the book contents.
So, I wouldlike to forge ahead with editing this text but dont want to be seen as a thief or copyright infringer, so I would like the consent of my fellow monks before embarking on this time-consuming yet clearly valuable project.
To some, Perl is an art form. To others it is a religion. What is it to you?
