[Brisbane-pm] 2008 PM Census & local OSDClub

[Jacinta Richardson]

G'day folk,

The Brisbane PM list has been a little quiet recently, so I thought I'd see what 
I could do to wake it up.  As you may be aware, davorg (Perl Groups Manager) is 
running another PM groups census.  ( http://use.perl.org/~davorg/journal/36385 
).  This is to determine:

	* How many groups are active
	* How many people participate  etc

You don't have to meet regularly in order for the group to continue to exist, 
but Damian will need to fill in the questions sent from davorg, and it'll 
probably be a good idea if this list gets some traffic.

If you didn't know, the Gold Coast LUG (GCLUG) members were very excited about 
the success of OSDC last year and have started up their own OSD Gold Coast Club 
meetings.  These might be organised by Steve Dalton (he sent the announcement to 
the last one) which was on May 8th.

If you're proximate to the Gold Coast, you may find it useful to participate in 
the OSDGC meetings.  If they're anything like their Melbourne predecessors, they 
should be a great way to learn about lots of things incidental to programming in 
Perl and spend time with a good mix of people.

All the very best,

	Jacinta
