Subject: [oak perl] December Meeting: Theme
Message-ID: <200312011428.56689.george@metaart.org>
In the spirit of the Christmas season
the theme of our December meeting is.
(Funny I am endeavoring to be.)
The theme is giving and giveaways.
I'm planning to bring various goodies to give away
including:
* swag from O'Reilly
* some books
* some current computer periodicals
* and more
Thanks to Marsee and O'Reilly for much of this.
At my request, Marsee sent the swag specifically
for this meeting.
If you have something that is excess
that someone in the group might like,
it would be timely and very kool
if you brought it along.
(Hey, it happened last month.)

Subject: [oak perl] December Meeting: Lightning Talks
Message-ID: <200312011430.37068.george@metaart.org>
The theme of the December meeting
is decidely non-technical,
still it would be kool
to have a few Perl related lightning talks.
Given that a lightning talk can be
as short as you want
(and is by agreement no longer than 5 minutes),
perhaps a couple of you will volunteer.
Otherwise, I'll play Alice's Restaurant
as background music all evening long
-- oops, wrong context (wrong millenium too).
Let me try that again,
otherwise you may get to hear
more about some topic I bring up
than you ever wanted to hear.
Anyway, keep the possibility in mind.
Hey, it could be a lightning gripe
or a lightning plea for help.
George
P.S. Hm, perhaps you're not sure
what a lightning talk is,
or perhaps you just want more info about them.
For some of my thoughts see
http://www.metaart.org/maca/perl/lightning/lightning_what.html
If you have thoughts or links to share
re lightning talks,
go for it.

Subject: [oak perl] Ideas for Meetings Next Year!?
Message-ID: <200312011815.04492.george@metaart.org>
OK, earlier I asked for suggestions for next year's meetings.
Here's what I have so far
re Regexes:
regexes
regex talk + regex therapy session (by Tony Stubblebine)
rules in Perl 6
re Perl Design Principles and Culture:
Language Design Principles
Postmodernism
re Perl (but not included above):
Arrays
Hashes
using Perl for CGI
Perl & XML (possible mini course by AcademyX)
What I Like and Don't Like about Perl
re Other:
Jobs
Giveaways (in December)
Hm, that would be enough topics for all 12 meetings.
If you have preferences for something different,
speak up,
especially if you are prepared to do something
toward making your suggestion(s) happen.
George
P.S. If I left something off the list,
please remind me.
P.P.S. If you are prepared to help make any of the above happen,
let me know.

Subject: [oak perl] Pearl Harbor Road!?
Message-ID: <200312012003.15797.george@metaart.org>
According to the December meeting announcement
on the Oakland.pm website,
Robert lives on Pearl Harbor Road.
> where: Robert Kuropkat's place
> 2845 Pearl Harbor Road, Alameda
Using reasoning
similar to that used in User Friendly
(see http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=20010831 ),
could I conclude
that Robert lives on a street named after a scripting language.

Here's a recent article from our local newspaper, "The Press Democrat":
http://www.pressdemocrat.com/business/news/03oreilly_e1.html
***Wil Wheaton to Write Three Books for O'Reilly
Any honest computer geek will admit that his obsessive coding is, at
heart, a futile attempt to create a world as cool as those depicted in
science fiction. New evidence of the symbiotic relationship between Sci Fi
and geekdom surfaced, as O'Reilly, the geek publisher-of-record, announced
plans to publish three books by Wil Wheaton, blogger, geek, and the actor
who portrayed Wesley Crusher on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Wil's
first two books, "Dancing Barefoot" and "Just a Geek," are almost
unbearably honest tales of life, love, and the rigors of being an ensign
on the Starship Enterprise.

***RouteWord: An Interesting Diversion
Graphs--loosely connected, unordered collections of nodes--are highly
important to computer science. Visualizing graphs is even more important:
think of maps, routes, webs, and any other interconnected relationships.
O'Reilly author Andrew Odewahn explains how he accidentally created a new
type of word puzzle while playing around with graph visualization.
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2003/11/26/routewords.html
Throughout the month of December, we're running daily RouteWord puzzles
from Andrew Odewahn. Here's today's puzzle:

***Introduction to the Peer-to-Peer Sockets Project
The Peer-to-Peer Sockets project reimplements Java's standard Socket,
ServerSocket, and InetAddress classes to work on the JXTA peer-to-peer
network rather than on the standard TCP/IP network. Brad Neuberg shows how
to configure and set up the P2P Socket libraries to run on your system,
how to create and run P2P server and client sockets, and how to work with
the P2P InetAddress class, and discusses security issues and limitations
in the framework.
http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2003/12/03/p2psockets.html
***Java vs. .NET Security, Part 1
Java and .NET address similar code security issues, but which one offers
the best security implementation? Denis Piliptchouk's series starts with a
side-by-side look at how each performs configuration, code verification,
and memory isolation.

Joshua,
I hadn't thought of cheating on the ASCII art.
I don't know what Marsee's intent was,
so I don't know how much of a problem that is.
Hm, Marsee does say "your original rendition".
I enjoy the idea of ASCII art forgeries.
I'm imagining a museum of ASCII art forgeries.
Curator:
"And over here we have an excellent forgery of an early Tony Monroe.
Only an expert would know it's a forgery.
The giveaway is the overuse of consonants."
George
P.S.
If any of you have done ASCII art forgeries of O'Reilly animals
and feel like it,
I'd suggest sending them off to Marsee with a note.

OK, Tuesday, I'll give a lightning talk
regarding the current test version of Silly Villains
and what makes it tick.
You can see the test version in action at
http://www.metaart.org/firefly/
(Request:
Please run the cgi involved
from one of the pages on firefly.
Well, unless you wish to encounter an error page.)
If you wish to,
you can get to a bit of info
about the mechanisms underlying Silly Villains
(also) from http://www.metaart.org/firefly/
The general approach has not changed.
However the language for expressing
the grammar for Silly Villains
is now much richer.

Of course, everyone knows that the true ASCII art masters
tended to re-use their canvases. If you look closely at
the obfuscated Perl camel (surely you've seen the shirt from
think geek) you can see a revolving earth ASCIImation.

Subject: [oak perl] Lightning Talk on Silly Villains
Message-ID: <120820031835.770.6ab7@comcast.net>
All,
This will be the first meeting at my place and I am afraid I won't have what I consider and "adequete" computer for the meeting. I'm working on a debian box (installing it over the internet was pretty cool) but I am not yet finished. I can have an OS/2 box (stop giggling) that can access the Internet but I won't have a linux box ready. If someone wants to bring a computer with them then that would be grand. If you bring an s-video cable with you we can plug it into the tv as well...

Marsee,
OK, here's my crude attempt at ASCII art.
(See below my "signature".)
It's supposed to be a llama.

P.S. Please be sure to use Courier
or some other fixed width font.
Otherwise, it looks even weirder.

Anyone else?

I have a friend who wants to run his own list serve on
his in house server for a non-profit community service
program. He will probably want to have a couple of
different lists, so he wants to run it himself.
Does anyone know of good list serve software or have
any preferences for a particular product?
I pointed him in the direction of majordomo, but I
know so little about it that I couldn't tell him much.

What is Oakland.pm.org managed by? Postman, I think?
It's plenty clicky from the admin side, if I remember right.

Another good option is Mailman (http://www.list.org). That is the s/w that is

Belden,
You are correct.
I've found Mailman a pleasure to use for this list.
Easy to set up and easy to maintain.
Here's a snip from the Perl Mongers FAQ
for running a successful Perl Monger's group.
------------------------------------------------
Q: You use mailman on a Perl web site?
Are you a secret Python programmer?
A: mailman is better than majordomo. Deal with it.
-----------------------------------------------
I don't know anything about the system administration side.
But Mike does and I see he has posted on this thread.

I'm thinking some of the newer Oakland.pm subscribers,
including Joshua,
may not know what PBML is.
PBML stands for Perl Basics Mailing List.
There's a FAQ for it at
http://oakland.pm.org/mailinglists/pbml_faq.html
It's not been very active recently,
but it's, IMO, a good place to ask basic questions re Perl.

You might want to check out Siesta, if you want a Perl mail list
manager. It's still in development, but since the London Perl Mongers
are doing the development, rest assured that it will be a first-rate
product.
The Siesta developers use it for their own mail lists, so it's usable
now.

Thanks to those of you who communicated your concerns
re where we would be meeting
now that Arden's place is not available to us.
In November we met at Joshua's in Berkeley
and a few days ago we met at Robert's in Alameda.
The plan for now is
* to have regular meetings at Joshua's
which is easily accessible by both car and public transportation
* to have special meetings needing more space at Robert's.
Both Joshua and Robert are agreeable,
and, I believe,
this plan takes into account the input I've gotten.
Thanks to both Joshua and Robert, and their wives,
for making their places available to us.
Also thanks to them for tolerating
the somewhat lengthy decision making process
we just went through.

My modest Christmas offering is this link
to a Cat's View of a Christmas tree:
http://www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/index.html
And if you're into cat's perhaps you'll like this too:
http://www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/joyarchives/285.html
Or perhaps more appropriate to a pm is:

Or if you are really more interested in Linux
perhaps you'll like this:

Anyway, Merry Christmas!

As i said in my previous message:
You're invited to a New Year's Day party at my house on January 1 of
2003 beginning at 3 p.m.
Those who arrive earlier will be enslaved and put to hard labor.
But i forgot to mention the following:
Bring your own bottle, but
don't bring food.
Antoinette will provide finger-food.
For directions, visit
http://users.lmi.net/arden/en.dir.html
or
http://users.lmi.net/arden/en/dir.html
One or both of the above should work.
