in reply to What is the Perl Color?

I'm surprised noone mentioned http://perl.oreilly.com/usage/. Go by the colours on those, I'd say.

    Hmmm...

    One camel to rule them all... (Tongue firmly in cheek.)

    Interesting.

    Adopt a community accepted mascot, typestyle, logo and color? .

    Bite a hand that feeds Perl? Or let sleeping camels lie?

    It is interesting to see the mention of a Perl "brand" in O'Reilly's write up on the page you mentioned. And it all makes for interesting thinking about trademarks, brands, etc. and the sticky wicket surrounding O'Reilly's Place in the Universe, etc. They certainly have done a fine job supporting Perl, Larry and others, no doubts there.

    They all show up as the same #00659C colour as I mentioned above for the cover shots of the books.
