Message-ID: So far we have about 15 people attending tonight's meeting. That's good but I would like to see even more. One thing I think we have missed in the last few meetings is lack of general group discussion, mainly due to the total length of our 2 presentations. Tonight we will make more time for general group discussion and doing the social thing. Also, who is interested in a social meeting in May? ePrize has a roof top deck... If you are coming to tonight's meeting, please RSVP to me if you haven't already. -Todd P.S. Last month we started meeting in ePrize's new, expanded office space. No more cramped confines of our Peach Pit conference room! -----Original Message----- From: Todd Chapman Sent: Friday, March 16, 2007 9:58 AM To: detroit-pm at pm.org Subject: The next meeting of the Detroit Perl Mongers will be next Tuesday, March 20th at 7pm.

We have no committed presenters yet. Presentation topics can be short (15 minutes) or long (1 hour). I would like to get away from planning only a month ahead. It would be nice to compile a list of presenters and topics so that we can plan a few months in advance and organize the topics in a sensible way. So if you want to present on _something_ _eventually_ please let me know ASAP. Chad and I will take that list, create a preferred schedule, and then contact the presenters and encourage (not force) them to conform to our plans. Don't worry, community opinions will be solicited (but planning is a bitch so step up or shut up!) Here's what we need from potential presenters: * Synopsis * Estimated presentation length * Who you are, where you work, etc. * Slides (optional but always nice) * foo You don't need to be a Perl expert to present. We have some Ruby fans among us who are learning Perl. I would love to learn what Ruby gets right that Perl gets wrong (unless you say everything!) OK. I think I got my point across. Presenter flood commence! Todd Chapman todd.chapman at eprize.com Software Engineer ePrize
