Regular quiz example program was the wrong version; hiatus next week

1. On Monday I sent a sample solution for the regular quiz #7.
   Unfortunately, I pasted in the wrong version of the program!  The
   version I had planned to send was a little easier to understand,
   corrected a small bug, and, most important, was the one I discussed
   in the rest of the message, which referred to variables and code
   that weren't in the version that I actually sent.

   The correct version is at

        http://perl.plover.com/qotw/misc/r007/mjd.pl

   Thanks to Doug Palmer for pointing this out.

2. QOTW will be on hiatus next week.  I need to catch up on work, and
   I also haven't written the talk I am supposed to deliver to the
   Philadelphia Linux User's Group tomorrow evening.  Also I will be
   out of town between Friday and Monday.  That means that the next
   quiz will be posted on December 11 instead of on December 4.

3. I would like to obtain translations of the QOTW web page into more
   languages.  If you are interested in providing one, please see

        http://perl.plover.com/qotw/translations.html

   and then please contact me before beginning work.

4. At least two people have had a peculiar problem unsubscribing from
   the mailing list.  The problem was this: They were subscribed to
   both perl-qotw and perl-qotw-discuss.  They were getting too much
   mail, so they decided to unsubscribe.  They unsubscribed from
   perl-qotw.  They continued to get too much mail because they were
   still subscribed to perl-qotw-discuss.  

   Then they got upset and hollered WHY AM I STILL GETTING MAIL?  I
   ALREADY UNSUBSCRIBED AND NOTHING HAPPENED.  YOUR MAILING LIST
   SOFTWARE IS BROKEN!!!!

   Does anyone have any useful suggestion about how to make these
   people's problems smaller in the future?  If so, please contact me.

   By the way, instructions for unsubscribing are at

Thank you all for your interest.
