And so this is the thing; some years back, I ran the North Texas OpenView Forum chapter along with Denise Lucas. I say this to say that I have experience running a user group. What I don?t have is much in the way of perl experience. Neophyte would actually be stretching my level of experience. But rather than just let this group die again, and presuming that someone with more perl experience than I have would also step up, I?d be willing to help run this group, as perl is something I?m very interested in. Additionally, my fianc?e is a professional event planner. So we?d have that working for us as well. So what say you, members of DFW perl mongers? Do we want to keep this going? Or no?

I'll send you message off-list with my contact information as well. Monday/Tuesday/Friday nights work best for me, as long as it's not the 1st Tuesday of the month. ProTip: Attendance will usually be lower for meetings scheduled on Wednesdays; Perl Monger parents with kids involved in after-school programs can't come. (These groups almost universally choose Wednesday nights for their meetings.) Lastly, please let me give you some advice that proved it's weight in gold to me: don't try to do this alone. Share leadership and ownership. Distribute your executive function across a two/three person leadership structure so you have committed people to help when 'life happens' and you can't run a scheduled meeting. Have a co-president. Take the offers of help that have been/will be extended. Future success will surely hinge on your ability to depend on a solid team. -- Tommy Butler On Jul 4, 2017 3:11 PM, "Robert Hughes via DFW-pm" wrote: Hi Tommy, That would be greatly appreciated.
