[DFW.pm] Announcing the upcoming Perl Mongers Meeting

[Tommy Butler]

Yes folks, this Wednesday the 9th we "Git" to it!  Bring your laptop and
come prepared to use/learn git; if you haven't used it yet, I promise
it's not as hard as you might be expecting.  Please download and install
a git client on your machine *before* you come, as installation of git
is not part of the itinerary.  We'll be using command-line git and
github to kick off our collaborative project, so even if you won't be
coding or patching, this is your chance to come face to face with Linus
Torvalds' "Information Manager From Hell" and gain a decent level of
mastery of this essential development tool.  Experience with git will be
a pretty feather in your hat, a useful gadget in your utility belt, and
a nice bullet on your resume (profit!)  It will be the way we share
information and code in our own DFW.pm projects (fun!)

As a bonus, we'll also be showing a recording of Randal Schwartz's own
presentation on Git.  The great Randal Schwartz
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randal_L._Schwartz> literally wrote the
book on Perl, so this is a night you won't want to miss.
