If you are interested, the French Perl Mongers can publish French translations of your future articles in Linux Magazine France[1], where we regularly publish articles since 4 years now. The articles are later put online after a couple of months on our web site[2]. As the magazine is aimed for a technical audience, an article can be as deep as the author seems fit. For example, there were a serie of articles detailing how to write an operating system, and the current issue features one about CRC algorithms optimisations, in C. This is just to say that technical stuff won't frighten the editor-in-chief (he's an electronics geek[3] ;-) Don't hesitate to contact me if you want more details.
