First Perl 6 Book is Out

Posted by michael on from the first-not-always-best dept.

prostoalex writes "O'Reilly Publishing presented Perl 6 Essentials, the first book to be dedicated to Perl 6, at the beginning of this month. Looking at the table of contents, it hardly looks like a valid replacement for Llama or Camel books. Chapter 1 is available online. The whole book is available to Safari subscribers." I'm sure we'll review it sooner or later.

    PERL is dying, just like BSD. That is why no one is posting on this thread.

    Wouldn't you instead need to see the cover to determine that?
