[Brisbane-pm] Perl Mongers Meeting Oct 3rd, 6pm Jumbo Interactive

[Mark Venz]

G'day All,

As we have only one speaker,
Could people provide one-liners (and/or explanations) to provoke discussion?

Also, if you're not using the meetup site, for attendance indication,
could you let me know if you're attending,
(for catering purposes).
Meetup site:  http://www.meetup.com/BrisbanePM/events/82351852/

Thanks,

Mark
