Dan-- "Ringmaster" is a bit strongly worded. I'm more or less point-man, and feeling it at the moment. I've not heard from Chris Nandor about his column for the upcoming PerlMonth. I suspect this has to do with the recent DDoS attack over at Slashdot (Chris' day job is maintaining this source-code for "Slash"). I can't be sure, though. In any case, I'm looking for a column, and apparently in short order. I'll need to look at the schedule again, but there may well be an opening. Your article idea sounds interesting. --Brian -- Webmaster/MacPerl Guru ***************************************************** Mycoinfo, the World's First Mycology e-Journal http://www.mycoinfo.com/ ***************************************************** ---------- >From: Rich Morin <rdm@cfcl.com> >To: Dan Shoop <shoop@iWiring.Net> >Cc: Brian McNett <webmaster@mycoinfo.com>, Vicki Brown <vlb@cfcl.com> >Subject: Re: Contributions to Script Different >Date: Mon, May 22, 2000, 10:54 PM > > Step 1) subscribe to mp-scribes (via http://www.macperl.com > Step 2) post an article idea (or draft) to the list > > Brian McNett is the ringmaster for the column; he'll be happy to > answer questions of topics, timing, etc. > > -r > > At 8:07 PM -0700 5/22/00, Vicki Brown wrote: >>Terrific! >> >>After a year with the column, I'm taking some time off.
