Looking forward to seeing everyone this Thursday. Just a couple
of notes and questions:
- Yesterday I received a number (6) of copies of The Perl
Review in the mail. So, I have my copy, and I will place
one in the kwpm library (which is roughly equivalent to
Daniel). That leaves several to distribute. I am
tempted to ask for something like your favourite
commandline switch, or a cool use for statement
modifiers, but history tells me that I would end up
carrying most copies back home :( So, free copy to the
first 4 people who arrive.
- I am thinking that in March or April I would try to give
a talk about Perl 6 Rules and Grammars. They are
tremendously powerful, and it is possible that we might
actually be able to use them in place of tools like
Parse::RecDescent and lex/yacc well before Perl 6 sees a
production environment. Please let me know if there is
interest in this topic.
Notes for Daniel:
- Pizza for me, please. I linked the PizzaList wikipage to
the meeting, hope that doesn't make your life harder.
- I'm returning Perl & XML to the lending library. Can I
borrow the Alpaca book?
See everyone in a couple days,
Eric
