Some of you may or may not have noticed elsewhere that the esteemed saint chip is having a bit of Legal Difficulty (Mirrors here) with his (former) employers. This is an issue that could potentially affect us all.

We've been here before with employers behaving in an unenlightened fashion toward members of the community and we've rallied around to a greater or lesser extent, but I'm sure there is something that most people can do: whether contributing to the defence fund, providing further mirrors or publicising the case elsewhere.

Next time it could be you.

Update: changed mirrors to point at the www.irc.perl.org rotor

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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.
