From mrallen1 at yahoo.com Wed Nov 3 08:00:37 2010 From: mrallen1 at yahoo.com (Mark Allen) Date: Wed, 3 Nov 2010 08:00:37 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [Mpls-pm] Next technical meeting Message-ID: <672438.85809.qm@web65801.mail.ac4.yahoo.com> I'm going to organize the next technical meeting. I want to spend some time talking about the Dancer web application framework. I've been writing tutorials for it and I'm considering turning them into one or more talks which might be appropriate for YAPC::NA (hopefully coming soon to Minneapolis??) or Frozen Perl this winter. There's a Caribou in Roseville, off Snelling that has a meeting room available on Friday, November 19. How do you all feel about meeting on Friday? I mean, it's not like I have anything better to do on a Friday myself, but maybe you do? If someone has a better suggestion for a location, let me know. I'll follow up on it. Thanks.

Caribou Coffee (Har Mar Mall) 2111 Snelling Avenue North Roseville, MN 55113 (651) 636-5655 I'm thinking from 7 pm-8 pm. I'd like to talk for around 30-40 minutes about Dancer. Anyone else have something they want to talk about for 5-10 minutes as a bonus? I'm also planning to stick around for a while afterwards for semi-social general project hacking. Mark Allen http://www.linkedin.com/in/markrallen From mrallen1 at yahoo.com Fri Nov 12 14:20:20 2010 From: mrallen1 at yahoo.com (Mark Allen) Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2010 14:20:20 -0800 (PST) Subject: [Mpls-pm] Next technical meeting: Monday November 22, 2010 6:30pm Message-ID: <869220.5316.qm@web65804.mail.ac4.yahoo.com> Hi all. I've confirmed the date/time of the next technical Minneapolis Perl Mongers meeting. It will be November 22, 2010 at 6:30 pm at the Roseville Caribou Coffee adjacent to Har-Mar Mall on Snelling Avenue. I'm going to give a talk (about 30-40 minutes) about Dancer[1], a (very) lightweight web application development framework that's modelled on the Sinatra framework from Ruby. I'll be using the code and text from some tutorials I've been writing for the forthcoming Dancer Advent Calendar blog/github repo as the basis for this talk - so your candid feedback about what works and what doesn't will be very appreciated. Location: 2111 Snelling Avenue North Roseville, MN 55113 USA Phone: 651-636-5655 Map: http://goo.gl/Lnjud We'll be in a meeting room with a door and a whiteboard. There's no cost for using this room, but please buy a drink to support using the location. Date: November 22, 2010 (Monday) Time: 6:30pm til ? The store closes at 8pm - so we don't have to go home, but we can't stay there. I don't know if Dave can bring his projector (I don't have one unfortunately) so bring your own Internet-connected glowing rectangle and run the slides as I go through them. I'm also interested in setting a date/time for a December meeting if anyone has anything they'd like to talk about or an evening hackfest for social coding if no one has anything they especially want to talk about. If you want to give a short talk (5-10 minutes) I'll try to round up some others who also might want to do a lightning talk. I want to spend some time in the not distant future talking about jQuery.
