Monthly Renewal: May 2008
Firstly, yes, we missed the Monthly Renewal last month. Outside concerns interfered with the normal cycle. It will not happen again (not that we expected it to happen before).
For similar reasons, this was a fairly quiet month. No great upheavels. Perhaps the most revolutionary thing was the Perl-Centric Regular Expression Cheat-Sheet, which was our first real foray into something specifically intended for print. If all goes as intended, it will not be our last. More on that as it develops.
May will, similarly, be a fairly quiet month. Still waters run deep, and all that. A new Big Guide (or two) is rumbling its way toward completion, as are some smaller things. We have as usual been making some changes on the back-end that either have no impact on you, or will not have any impact for a while.
There are also several much larger projects working their way toward being announced, which you will hear more about just as soon as we are ready to really talk about them. Suffice it to say that they are incredibly, lost-sleep-inducingly, frighteningly big projects. Normally we delay announcing projects because 10stripe tends to cancel a lot of projects (most of them, in fact) very early. In this case, it is more that we just like to surprise you.
Some of those projects are heavily inter-related, and are also related to some changes elsewhere in the site, but, well, more on all that at a later date.
