The DMS move is going well, but at the pace of volunteer labor.  Short
version: the classrooms are not ready yet.  Close, but dangling wires.

I propose we either take a pass on this month, or maybe Tommy can run a
Hangout based meeting.

I'll be donating the time to pitching in  on the classroom(s), since free
time is at a premium for me right now. :)

FYI: Lisa has a demo of List::Compare she has worked on for us, and
Mojolicous had a 5.0 release since last meeting.  Lots to cover next
meeting!

I second that vote. I just moved to a new area about 100 miles away from my old house. Its still equidistant from the makerspace but I'm still trying to get settled in and unpacked and there's lots of work for me to do here. And I mean lots!  Next month it is.

I'm excited to see that new demo from Lisa!

Great suggestion!   I liked the off topic one on coffee a lot actually.
Don't forget to thumbs up the ones you watch!

And as a shameless plug from me, you can watch me talk about how
Booking.com grows Perl devs. Probably the most disappointing part of
YAPC::NA this year was that I didn't get to hang out with frew at all.
And I was busy working and being the designated driver (being the only
american in our little posse from work) that I didn't even really get
to have any fun.

Subject: [DFW.pm] Project opportunity
Message-ID: <CALerNQLCTciOR8LQ9BLk8TLcrgNyD+Fr3oaAsrKHuDoOftD4bg@mail.gmail.com>

Hey, all,

I have a part-time cool Perl project opportunity for the right person.  It
will be working in Perl using POE on embedded systems, like Raspberry PI
and BeagleBone.  It's in aviation, of all industries, so it's got that cool
factor as well.  The initial phases of the project are pure Perl, but later
phases will involve some web development, and maybe even some Android/IOS
app development, so knowledge of those technologies would help as well.

It's one of those things that starts off with a pretty tight budget with
some opportunity for more work at the back end, but it's still a paid
engagement.  It's the kind of thing that might be ideal for a good
developer trying to learn Perl.

I thought I'd ask here before going any wider because I have pretty high
regard for this group.

If you are interested, or know of someone who might be, contact me
directly, and let's have a chat and see if there is a good fit.

Best regards,

Shaun

I don?t normally send out messages like this, but I think this is worthwhile, because it is a simple way we can promote our beloved 
Perl to the larger OSS world, even if just a little?

I came across our very own Kent Fredric?s GitHub profile today and did a double-take when I read his contrib stats:

https://github.com/kentfredric       # "Year of contributions - 21,996 total?

Without even speculating by what kind of dedication/witchcraft this number is even possible, it made me curious about stats in 
general for GitHub, and some googling turned up this page:

http://git.io/top

This is a report of the ?Most Active? 256 GitHub users. Well, not quite? The current number 1 on the list has HALF the contribs 
(kevinsawicki at ?11,430?). kentfredric doesn?t show up because of this second caveat: "Only first 1000 GitHub users according to 
the count of followers are taken. This is because of limitations of GitHub search.?

So, it seems all we need to do is have a few hundred people follow kentfredric (based on followers counts of others who did make the 
list) and the next time this report is generated, Kent, and thus Perl, will take over the number 1 slot ? and by a commanding margin 
(as it should be) ? and dethroning JavaScript.

Currently, Perl is very poorly represented, with just a handful of our luminaries showing up (with the first not coming until #40).

I?m not sure how important this report/page actually is, but, I figure, why not if it is this easy! kentnl has already quietly done 
the hard part by somehow managing to average over **60** GitHub contributions per day, every day, for at least the past 365 days. 
All we have to do it make 2 clicks of the mouse, and tell our coworkers to do the same. It seems like we can make this happen in a 
blink of an eye?

    I don't normally send out messages like this, but I think this is
    worthwhile, because it is a simple way we can promote our beloved
    Perl to the larger OSS world, even if just a little...

    I came across our very own Kent Fredric's GitHub profile today and
    did a double-take when I read his contrib stats:

         https://github.com/kentfredric       # "Year of contributions -
    21,996 total"

    Without even speculating by what kind of dedication/witchcraft this
    number is even possible, it made me curious about stats in general
    for GitHub, and some googling turned up this page:

         http://git.io/top

    This is a report of the "Most Active" 256 GitHub users. Well, not
    quite... The current number 1 on the list has HALF the contribs
    (kevinsawicki at "11,430"). kentfredric doesn't show up because of
    this second caveat: "Only first 1000 GitHub users according to the
    count of followers are taken. This is because of limitations of
    GitHub search." 

    So, it seems all we need to do is have a few hundred people follow
    kentfredric (based on followers counts of others who did make the
    list) and the next time this report is generated, Kent, and thus
    Perl, will take over the number 1 slot --- and by a commanding
    margin (as it should be) --- and dethroning JavaScript.

    Currently, Perl is very poorly represented, with just a handful of
    our luminaries showing up (with the first not coming until #40).

    I'm not sure how important this report/page actually is, but, I
    figure, why not if it is this easy! kentnl has already quietly done
    the hard part by somehow managing to average over **60** GitHub
    contributions per day, every day, for at least the past 365 days.
    All we have to do it make 2 clicks of the mouse, and tell our
    coworkers to do the same. It seems like we can make this happen in a
    blink of an eye...

Yeah, just follow!  He already has more commits than many others but since
he didn't have enough "followers" his stats didn't count.  Stupid but there
it is.  :)

Count of followers > 273 only?

I have got 2,380 "years of contribs", which would be #82 and the 3rd 
highest perl dev in this funky list, but I'm also not there, because of 
57 followers. Who else? Many I guess.

#40 tokohirom 3411 years, 536 followers
#68 audreyt   2625 years, 710 followers

How should one trust this metric? Following means being spammed by every 
commit/contrib in your https://github.com/ timeline.
I'm not sure if I want to follow kentfredric mass commits or if you 
should follow me. If you follow me you'll get bi-hourly all openssl and 
libressl changes, done via a cronjob of course. Lotta work, but not mine.

Actually following on github only gets you notifications in your timeline of forks, new repos and when that user follows someone else.   It does not give you their individual commits; to get those you would need to subscribe to a particular repository.

Good point. Call me convinced. Please follow the top perl'ers.
