Need Help??

Last week, asked on the Cascavel-PM mailing list about what O'Reilly Perl PDF Books could be publicized on a non-authorized public downloadable web repository pointed by a Perl Mongers Group website (!!), I answered:

Here is the list of books that you can use this way, IMHO:
    @free_publicable_books_from_oreilly = ();
[download]

It'd be funny if it were true, but it's not. -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker Be sure to read my standard disclaimer if this is a reply.	[reply]

I'm sure O'Reilly would be delighted with you publicising all of the books they currently have in print.	[reply]

So do I. So I choosed to pass an empty list as the `@free_publicable_books_from_oreilly` array. Ok, explaining it would make this a no-joke at all. But who cares? The most important thing is that it stopped the not-so-funny guy and I'm having a litte fun telling this history. -- monsieur_champs	[reply] [d/l]
