Perl Mongers Perl Magazine

Posted by Hemos on from the mongering-it dept.

Its first issue was published on 1 February in PDF-only format, but the article 'Extreme Publishing' describes the process by which they plan to expand. With The Perl Journal's future still somewhat in doubt, this is welcome news."

    Its funny how these groups attempt to make a go of old-school once-a-month publishing format when sites like O'Reilly Network, IBM DeveloperWorks, and MSDN have demonstrated that the publish-while-you-go method, online only, is far more useful.

    I suspect that over time this effort will die and Perl.com will become the de facto route for publishing articles that perl users need to read.
