I have always been a fan of Quick Reference Guides,=20
(like O'Reilly's Perl Pocket Reference that I lost),
cheat sheets, and the like and recently discovered
at a Barnes and Nobles, a bunch of "SparkCharts"
by SparkNotes.com, including a few computer science
topics like JAVA and UNIX.
A quick browse of sparknotes.com shows only a limited
number of CS topic SparkCharts, but no obvious way to
request or suggest new topics for SparkCharts.
Might there be one among us equipped as a writer and
perl expert and willing to work with SparkNotes to=20
generate a Perl, and perhaps a Perl6, SparkChart?
A Perl SparkChart would be one way to support
advocacy of perl, methinks.
However, perhaps sparknotes would worry that the=20
there would not be enough of a market for that among
the perceived main customer, the CS college student.
I think sparknotes may have a competitor, as well.
Thank you,
