>  Presentations:
>
>    1. Josh Barratt: *AnyEvent -- Perl Asynchronous Programming*
>    Abstract:
>    Event driven programming has been a powerful paradigm for years, but
>    it's emerging as an increasingly important way to work. Making events easy
>    is part of what has made node.js so exciting, and is possible in Python with
>    Eventlet and Ruby with EventMachine. Perl's answer to this is very mature
>    and flexible: AnyEvent. As well as an introduction to the module, how to use
>    it, and some of the other modules in the "family", we'll cover some
>    before/after examples of synchronous code made asynchronous.
>    2. Gabe Costello: *Epistemology & Perl Oracles*
>    Abstract:
>    Most of us are familiar with the output of Perl's native test oracle
>    every time we install a module from CPAN, ok, not ok. When testing, did you
>    ever think that you might need to know more than that to isolate faults?
>    This discussion covers the Test Anything Protocol (TAP), capturing system
>    events & using Perl to lean more what you know & what you don't know about
>    the application you are testing.
>
> About our speakers: Josh Barratt is CTO of MediaTemple.
>
> Gabe Costello is a Software Quality Assurance Engineer at MediaTemple.
