What massive FUD, I dare you to sign your name.
- O'Reilly doesn't own Perl
- It publishes great books
- It does great things for Perl
- Profit is okay in the U.S. dude read Atlas Shrugged already
- If you are a real man or whatever you read perldocs more than O'Reilly anyway
- When I drop by once every few months by chance they usually have an interesting article
- You worked against what libraries are there for
- I usually don't buy many books but one of theirs on SOAP in Perl is really fabulous so far.. my one programming book this past year and I saved up over $50 to buy it overseas, it is worth it even so.
- Nice flame thread how nostalgic, now go apologize to your library.
- You are mentally ill and you have no obligation to pay O'Reilly anything.
- Please illustrate your point by indicating the high quality texts you have published worldwide for free
- There is no evil conspiracy at O'Reilly or Perlmonks
- We need more great publishers like O'Reilly, not less, to increase the number of high quality Perl related texts on the shelves of bookstores which tend to be about other languages. This is a commercial endeavor and O'Reilly is doing a good job vis a vis the community as far as I know.
Feel free to add more below.. I enjoy listing good things about O'Reilly books. Every one I've ever seen has looked great and not just the cover! Of course if you have negative things to post please use negative numbers. 'KTHX
