Glad the list is picking back up again.  I have been pretty since April
due to changing jobs and the horridness of the job I changed to.  It's
getting better but still has to be in the bottom 10% rating IT jobs in
the world.  The management is interesting.

Anyway, we could start meeting again.  I think we still have Chad Lavy
at March First open to allowing us meet at the Smith Bros. hardware
building.  I haven't updated the web page for a while, but since I have
to update my domain as well I think I can do them together.

What are people's thoughts on using perl to automate the building of a
website.  I was working on XML documents for content and then having
seperate files for layout and templates but I have not been working on
it for a couple months.  Has anyone worked with web pages this way? 
Traditionally, I would edit in dreamweaver and FTP it up, but I was
looking for a more organized way to use XML and perl as a tool.  I am
extremely busy and slightly unorganized, so hopefully this will all get
done soon.
