Just a reminder of the Perlmongers lunch meeting tomorrow 11:30AM at Priority Health. We have Jonathan Rockway from Chicago speaking on "Catalyst Basics" - a web application framework written in Perl (see below or our website for details - yes, the website:
<a href="http://grand-rapids.pm.org/">http://grand-rapids.pm.org/</a>). Jonathan will provide an introduction to Catalyst as well as answer these and other questions:<br><br> - Compare/Contrast Catalyst to Ruby on Rails.<br>
- When is Catalyst a good fit, when is it not? <br> - How well can Catalyst be integrated with existing web apps?<br><br>Please RSVP for free pizza lunch. Hope to see you there!<br><br>Also, there has been discussion of trying to move Andy's talk (Fri, Sep 28 5:30PM) to another night of the week. Does anyone have any suggestions?
