When you post an article, you should get a reply from my perl response daemon (actually, a complex maze of procmail, mailagent, Perl, MH, and various other tools) nearly immediately if you are on the Internet. (If you're off in the store-and-forward world... it'll still show up, but later.) If you *don't* get a response from my daemon in a reasonable amount of time, feel free to write me directly so I can help diagnose the problem. I'll try to process the queue every seventy-two hours or better. You'll get email from me (for now) the moment I either accept or reject the article in accordance with the charter (see below). By the way, posting is handled via Rodger Anderson's excellent NNTPClient Perl module -- thanks to him for letting me work with it a bit to do my postings. The comp.lang.perl newsgroup is supposed to be going away soon (the timeline escapes me), so start posting to and reading comp.lang.perl.misc. Expect further announcements as rmgroup-day approaches. Oh yeah... the official announcement looked like this: CHARTERS A split of comp.lang.perl into comp.lang.perl.misc and comp.lang.perl.announce is proposed. Existing traffic in comp.lang.perl will migrate to comp.lang.perl.misc, which will remain an unmoderated newsgroup for discussion of issues of all sorts relating to perl. comp.lang.perl.announce will be a low-volume, moderated group for announcements of new releases of perl or its extensions (oraperl, sybperl, etc.) and periodic postings related to perl. It will be moderated from the address . Actual moderation will be carried out by Randal Schwartz , with Bart Robinson and Robert Haas as backup moderators.
