Yes - its not the most convenient, but for lack of another space... I might
be inclined to speak w/ my employer to see if we can use a conference room.
Ill have to put feelers out.

The last time we talked about scheduling, the suggestion was that we'd meet

The Copeprhead is pretty good. descent wings and a crab cake  burger ( the
Chesapeake I think ) which is friggin awesome. I recommend it.

Assuming that we pick a topic and that the presenter can be reader, our next

$> finger rjbs  # :-O

We still had our list of desired topics devised ages ago.  Somewhat stripped
> down and modernized it is:

>   * writing secure perl code
>   * modern web programming
>   * generating SQL with perl
>   * generating JavaScript with Perl
>   * DBIx::Class and/or Rose::DB::Object
>   * writing modules (presumably both "how to do so" and "how to cpanize")
>
> Tom suggested he could do a talk on:

>   * PDF::API2
>
> I have prepared talks on:
>
>   * Sub::Exporter
>   * Perl Email Modules
>
> I plan on producing talks on:
>
>   * why email programming is harder than you think
>
> ...and I'm pondering doing my own take on that old chestnut:
>
>   * really powerful evil stuff that you shouldn't do but that's lots of
