What's this? The Python Review? At least you can keep the initials. April fools day is over!

I don't mind a few pages about the competition, and I realise Python and Perl have some things in common, but come on - 19 of the 32 pages are about Python!

If you create a magazine with Perl in the name, I think 40% non-Python content is a very bad score.

I hope the next issue will have some non-golf Perl content.

    Well, we released it yesterday. I just didn't say anything about it here until today. I can't be everywhere. :-)

    Next issue we're going to have an article on Perl & flex, and the issue after that is prob'ly going to be code-heavy on testing and debugging.

    <SallyStruthers>But there's more to do. Won't you help?</SallyStruthers>

    apart from the fact that it offended my good taste

    I don't understand why he [Van Rossum] had to insult perl in an electronic-magazine devoted to Perl? I assume the interview and everything wasn't an April Fool's joke.
