In this workshop, brian d foy (blog, twitter, github) will lead you through the entire process as you upload a real module to CPAN. You'll create a new module, upload it to Github, make some changes, and upload it to CPAN. You'll break your module, upload the broken distribution, then work with others in the class to fix it by sending and merging Github pull requests. Finally, you'll upload the fixed module. By the end of the class you'll probably see your module on MetaCPAN, automatically announced in various places, and you might even get CPAN Testers reports. At every step of the way you'll have someone helping, and you'll even add some comaintainers. The workshop will be held on Thursday, August 14, just in time for CPAN Day (August 16th)[1]. RSVP on the Meetup: http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoPM/events/196897312/ With this, we are moving Office Hours to August 28th. Additionally, since having Office Hours has been more confusing than helpful, we will change our meeting schedule from "2nd Wednesday and 4th Thursday" to "2nd and 4th Thursdays". RSVP for this month's Office Hours on the Meetup: http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoPM/events/184243292/ [1]: http://blogs.perl.org/users/neilb/2014/07/cpan-day---14th-august.html (the URL says 14th, the content says 16th. It's gotta be one of those two) Doug Bell madcityzen at gmail.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: <23083616.299805.1408385008746.JavaMail.root@vznit170134> Well, not really a stranger. But I haven't been in Chicago since YAPC::NA::2008. I have to travel to Chicago from NYC on business Monday and Tuesday of next week (Aug 25-26). Actually arriving Sunday afternoon and leaving Wednesday afternoon. I suspect that Monday evening will have to be reserved for "corporate team-building." But if there's any chance of quaffing a few with Chicago Perlmongers on Tuesday, August 26, that would be great. There may be a couple of other Perlmongers coming in for this business as well. I realize from http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoPM/events/184243292/ that you're already scheduled for a technical meetup on Thu Aug 28, but unfortunately I can't stick around for that. I will be staying at the Hotel Chicago Downtown at 333 N. Dearborn St, so a downtown location would be nice. Look forward to hanging out with one and all. Thank you very much.
