Perl 5.8 press release
Posted: July 26th, 2002 Comments OffOkay, so it’s not exactly on time, but the
Perl
5.8 press release is now out. Most of the work is
muttley’s, some is
hitherto’s and some is mine.
Many thanks also go out to Jarkko
and Larry for their quotes,
and Kevin at the
Perl Foundation website.
Now,
how do we get it off here and onto all the news sites? The Perl Foundation
is a non-profit and has no newswire account, as far as I can tell.
I’ve mailed
a
bunch
of
sites, and I’ve pinged a load of journo
friends too, and now (on Owen’s
suggestion) I’m blogging it. If you’re a blogger, it’s very possible that you’re using
one
of
the
many
perl-based blogging tools already.
So do us a favour and scream it from the rooftops!
