As an FYI....

PerlMonks will be mentioned as a resource in an upcoming SAMS book on the topic of CGI/Web programming (not by me, tenatively titled "Designing with Perl").

It would have been mentioned in the second edition of the Teach Yourself series or the Developer's Dictionary, but I had a helluva time trying to get vroom's attention before the editing deadlines this summer. (Hi Tim!)

I make a point in my books to point people back to the community resources whether that be learn.perl.org, clp.misc, perl.com, IRC channels, or whatnot. At least I can leave a pointer to good resources outside of the bookstore. And since PM is a new kid on the block, you'd do well to spend time making yourself visible in these more established places since conscientious authors have been sending people there for years.
