Urg!  Twasn't moved, as Jonathon Taylor found that the meeting space 
was spoken for this week (today).  Rather,  when reporting that fact, 
he volunteered to present some notes on his/their experiences with 
Moose, emphasizing gotchas.


And I'd again like to thank Jonathon for the presentation.  You often 
(well, every time) hear the upside sell for new/pretty packages and 
get enthused over the next big 'Answer' to all your 
problems.  Hearing from the voice of experience can be both 
enlightening and sobering.  I'm hoping we will be able to hear "Part 2"!


I was tickled to this week find more than a couple articles 
'reflecting' on how Google's Go language was not quite as sparkley 
and shiny as people thought originally.  That in a lot of ways it was 
simply a better 
'C'. 
http://www.quora.com/What-reasons-are-there-to-not-use-Go-programming-language 
How do you know which way to 'jump' which something is announced?

And of course today's news that Google's Dart group will 
'de-emphasize' aiming for a browser VM for the language, instead 
agreeing to down-compile to plain Javascript.  You know, like 
TypeScript and CofferScript and ....   :-)

If the curse "may you live in interesting times" is not actually 
Chinese, it seems open to adoption by the IT industry, yes?
