I'm in the perverted situation that I want to equip my team with prints of Perl Best Practices and the German version is not only out of print, but O'Reilly is even not providing an eBook Version.

In Germany it's legal to photocopy books which got out of print after two years.

My best idea at the moment is to resort to copying relevant chapters of the German version and buying same amount of English version as compensation for bad conscience.

What you think?

PS: My colleagues do speak some kind of English but I don't want to accept the loss of productivity here.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
