in thread perl-5.8.8 is out

I just approved the story for use.perl. I didn't write it, and I didn't quote anything. Nick submitted the story and wrote all of the content, and that is the original message. If you have questions about something I did, you can always just ask me directly to get the real story, rather than assigning blame where it doesn't belong or cooking up a conspiracy. If you have a question about something Nick did, you can ask him.

    Thanks. My misunderstanding was about how news "stories" get submitted and approved by an editor, and subsequently posted under the editor's name.

    If you have questions about something I did, you can always just ask me directly...

    If you have a question about something Nick did, you can ask him.
    True enough. Honestly, it just didn't seem a big enough deal to involve you, let alone nick. Sorry about that.
    ...rather than assigning blame where it doesn't belong or cooking up a conspiracy.
    Neither of which I did, thankyouverymuch. I was just trying to figure out where that message of nick's came from. Ultimately the problem was my misunderstanding of how these "stories" get posted on use.perl, and for that I plead that it was an innocent and understandable mistake. Now, you could argue that I, as a use.perl account holder, should have known... But in fact I've never had to make use of the "submit a story" feature and was completely ignorant of its workings.

    We're building the house of the future together.
