Subject: [pm-h] April and May Technical meetings have been swapped
Message-ID: <20110403163433.16a84382@sovvan>

Due to some scheduling difficulties, the talk scheduled for a week from
Thursday (Apr. 14) has to be delayed for a month. Fortunately, Gordon
Child, who was scheduled to talk in May was ready early.

As such, we'll swap the talks from April and May.

See you in a little under two weeks for Gordon's talk.

Message-ID: <20110428072210.06d7077a@cygnus>

Our May meeting is in two weeks. But, so far, we don't have any
volunteers for a June presentation.

Now is a good time to let me know if you have a topic you would be
willing to present, in June, July, or ...

As always, the topic of the presentation should be something of
interest to Perl programmers, not just Perl topics. Programming tools,
editors, version control systems, hardware, or just some geeky topic
are all possible.

If you are interested, either post to the list to see if there is
interest or email me directly and we can set up a date.

I look forward to hearing from you,
G. Wade
