It's on GitHub at https://github.com/robrwo/Test-HTML-Spelling and will be uploaded to CPAN after a few tweaks. It works by parsing the HTML and checking the spelling of text as well as the title and alt attributes, but it ignores text in elements with the "no-spellcheck" class, so you can mark sections with user-added content or things like timezones to be ignored. And if course you can include your own dictionary. I'd appreciate any feedback.

This is selfish -- I don't have the time to attend Ruby, Python, Scotlug, techmeetup, hacklab and Perl meeting each month, but they all interest me. I'm sure there are some I'm missing that are cool too. Thus I'm wondering if we can't all continue to have our existing meetings, but perhaps also once in a while all get together and share some geek love. Together we're more nerdy than the sum of our $variables, or something like that. Fear not -- this need not interfere with drinking. And this isn't yet another conference. It's small, informal. I'll try and sort some kinda venue / projector and do some of the boring adminitrivia. You talk about anything you'd talk to your geek/nerd/coder/hacklab/et-al friends about in the pub. In a slightly, just about, more structured kinda ~15 min talk. (shorter is better). Roughly, the (rather hazy) plan is ... - less "Perl" more "nerd" - sorta like techmeetup, but without the suits. "By nerds for nerds". (thus, likely without the free beer/pizza ...). I'm thinking "start small". 2-3 short talks, in an evening. Adjorn to the pub. #1 probably ain't going to be anywhere close to this idea ... but hey, gotta start somewhere. Basically anything anyone on this list would find interesting and vaugely nerdy. More "lightning talks". Less "conference paper". (subtext : I may be naively optimistic, but I'd like to hear about cool shit nerdy people are playing with in Edinburgh, and frankly I care less about the technology. Ruby, web-dev, air-powered canons, Python, Haskell or indeed Perl. Or the art of brewing beer. Together we're more nerdy than the sum of our parts, etc). Sorry for the brain dump ... clearly this needs more thinking etc, and I'm hoping to make it along to a Ruby/Python meeting in the next couple of months to finally say Hi and see if there is any interest. ps. I note that Dec meetings clash with some "holiday" thing? Thus, I think realistically, it's Jan before I'm going to make it to a meeting. Unless anyone fancies an "emergency social" in the pub sometime to discuss the above? And/or drink beer, wine, spirits, or non alcoholic beverage of your choice.
