<br>Remember a few weeks ago, we were talking about hosting some sort of little<br>Perl workshop? This was discussed at YAPC. John C. and I spoke with a bunch<br>of other YAPC and workshop organizers. The current thinking is that Philly and
<br>ABE should collaborate on organizing a workshop, the location to be determined.<br>I liked the idea of having it at the same time as the "Frozen Perl" workshop to<br>be held, maybe, in Minneapolis. This is beside the point, though: I think it
<br>will get mostly discussed on PHL's list, but I'll let you know if it starts<br>getting some traction.<br><br>I think that, first, we should try to have one or two tech meetings!<br><br>I'm happy to do the first presentation or two, on the topic of your choice.
<br>Maybe one of you would rather do that! I'm sure I could get someone from<br>Philly to come up and teach us something cool, too.</blockquote><div><br><br>Id like to find something I could talk about. heterogeneous DB replication perhaps. The problem w/ giving talks to technical people is that most of us are at ( or above in some respects ) the same level with a bit of latitude in either direction.

<br>there's no whiteboard, projector, or quiet.<br><br>We used to do tech meetings at Lehigh U, but with our Lehigh members MIA for<br>quite some time, I don't think we can rely on that. Does anyone here have some
<br>sort of space they could donate monthly or bimonthly?</blockquote><div><br><br>I could try to get us a lab at DeSales University. Now that Im thinking about it - I think its quite possible. If not there, I may be able to speak w/ my employer and see if I can use a conference room after hours. We probably would not be granted INET access.
