I'm afraid I've failed on the subject of dog-sitters for Wednesday, so I don't think I'd actually be able to attend :( Could be a moot point, given that thus far I'd be the only speaker....

Would that be in addition to that 20 minute Catalyst walk-through I posted a while back? Would it make sense for someone to go through that, and then have your talk expanding on it? Or vice versa? If I've got a month's notice, I can probably have some or all of the talks I've suggested ready, so we could fill up whatever time slots were needed. A month's notice, you say?

Maybe demo some of the ajax apps I've been writing, point out some of the pits I've fallen into in the hopes they save someone else an ankle-twist. So I don't think having someone else walk-through that Cat talk would necessarily be helpful; I'll provide some URLs (including that one) to refer to for more info. > If I've got a month's notice, I can probably have some or all of the > talks I've suggested ready, so we could fill up whatever time slots were > needed.

Planning is so terribly unfashionable these days. Not to worry though.

Well, given that my Pod::Simple::HTML work involves subclassing quite a bit, perhaps I'd better work on that talk first! I'd be perfectly happy to chip in from the sidelines at the end of a Pod::Simple::HTML talk if you'd like to give one. Ian
