Subject: [Pdx-pm] Meeting next week:  Fennec testing framework
Message-ID: <201005061235.28362.enobacon@gmail.com>


Wed. May 12th, 6:53pm at FreeGeek -- 1731 SE 10th Ave.

Introduction to, and call for feedback on the Fennec testing framework
  speaker: Chad 'Exodist' Granum 

 Chad will demonstrate what he has so far, and request feedback. 

From the fennec docs:
  Fennec - Framework upon which inter-compatible testing
           solutions can be built. 

Fennec provides a solid base that is highly extendable. It allows for 
the writing of custom nestable workflows (like RSPEC), Custom Asserts 
(like Test::Exception), Custom output handlers (Alternatives to TAP), 
Custom file types, and custom result passing (collectors). In Fennec 
all test files are objects. Fennec also solves the forking problem, 
that's it, forking just plain works. 

This framework is what has come from a discussion around modern testing 
in Perl. It is an attempt to address, or make addressable the desires 
and needs expressed therein. It is also an attempt to make glue for all 
future solutions to current and future problems. 

As always, the meeting will be followed by social hour at the Lucky Lab.

Recording would be fine with me, in fact I know a few people out of
state who asked me if it would be recorded.

Subject: [Pdx-pm] seeking pdx hospitality
Message-ID: <7FEB11CB-088F-4388-9BE1-A7CDAD419E79@mediaweb.com>

Dear PDX PM list.... (i.e. Howdy!)

If anybody in Portland has the room or space, I am seeking a  
hospitable space to crash for 2 (or 3) nights while visiting Portland.  
My plan is to be in Portland at the end of the month, for an interview/ 
appointment on May 28.

Inquiring here seems like a more interesting way to visit Portland: to  
establish some cool relationships, enjoy the community of like-minded  
techno-geeks, and avoid paying too much money to a faceless corporate  
entity for use of a bed and shower. I am happy to compensate you and  
your homestead with a nominal per diem for the space & resources, for  
sure! :)

I currently work (in the VMware ecosystem) in the SF Bay Area  
(Peninsula/South Bay). I have a couple of friends in the "Greater  
Perl" community who know me. Oh, probably a few people may know David  
Fetter. He knows me. Anyway, pls contact me offlist so that I do not  
pollute the list with a thread.

And Thanks!

Cheers,
DK Smith
415-282-3571

PS: and hopefully we can sample the best Northwest IPAs that Portland  
has to offer! And if you want to accompany me on a trip to Bend, you  
are more than welcome. I must visit the Deschutes Brewing Company if I  
am within 180 miles of it. LOL.

Subject:  Portland Software Census

If you're involved with Portland's software community, you know that
there's an amazing variety and depth of work being created at
companies large and small, in hobby side-projects, and open source
efforts. The City of Portland has selected software as one of its
economic development clusters for the economic plan currently being
written. Agencies like the Portland Development Commission (PDC) are
involved in documenting our software community and developing a plan
for working with it, but they lack accurate data on the types of
software development local organizations are undertaking, and have
limited experience with the kinds of small companies, ad hoc
organizations, and independent work that forms much of our technology
efforts.

We'd like to assist the PDC and City of Portland efforts by initiating
a software community census to:
Gather some basic demographics about Portland's tech community
Flesh out what work people are doing and for whom
Build a baseline so we can quantitatively track the community's
breadth and depth

How can you participate?
Take the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KTGSH9Q before May 17
Spread the word to your colleages, coworkers and friends
We will be posting the results online, so check back with Silicon
Florist and your community tech organizations for details.

What do we get out of this? This census will:
Ensure economic development efforts are targeted to what our industry
actually needs
Provide data that can be used to assess the success of economic
development efforts
Create an accurate picture of our amazing tech community (and give us
bragging rights at OSCON).
Market Portland to companies like Involver who are coming to check out
Portland!

How our work fits into the City of Portland's plans:
Software is the of the 5 clusters identified in Portland Economic
Development Plan. It is the cluster that is least well defined in the
plan.
PDC took the first step with their survey.  Now we are helping them
flesh out their results and better target their efforts.
We will be sharing our survey's results directly with the Mayor and
PDC's Urban Development Director, Erin Flynn.

The survey will be open through the end of May, but we strongly
encourage you to complete the survey by May 17th so we can include
your data in the results we share at the next Lunch 2.0.

I have an immediate need for a Web Developer who knows Perl



Web developer to reskin website(s).



Perl experience is necessary since all the code is in Perl, and most
programs use a template system. either Template::Toolkit or
 HTML::Toolkit.



Experience with YUI for menus, JQuery/DataTables for tables and YUI CSS
 for style





Summary



Design and unify the website's look and feel (logos, fonts, CSS). At
 the end of the project nwe want all webpages to look the same.



For bonus points: if you have Perl experience, you'll be expected to
 convert a few programs that use CGI.pm and/or HTML::Template to
 Template::Toolkit instead.

mod_perl convertions will also be considered.



For more bonus points: improve any JavaScript you see.





Applicant must have



Three years experience with CSS.



Three years experience with Apache and CGI's.



One year experience with YUI CSS and/or JQuery.



JavaScript experience is a big plus.





Please email me your resume ASAP. jeffw at mbg.com



Thank you!

You must be one of them liberals.  Always playing the race card.  (joking,

Oh, that's a bit confusing.  Yes, please fill it out before the end of 
May.

It's not, it only looks that way?

Speaking of which, I noticed the other day that the done_testing() vs 
exit() issue I mentioned at the meeting is actually not handled by 
Test::Builder/Test::More because apparently there's no assertion 
that "we will eventually get to --there-- or something went wrong"  
(which is odd, since I seem to recall that being part of the discussion 
when it was created -- but again, maybe it only looks that way.)

I'd hard-coded a value in the where clause in the initial version of the 
function and failed to use a parameter when I changed the function to take 
one.

So see, Jeff?  Sometimes it's not about race; sometimes it's about  
values.

Is that still playing the liberal card?

The Perl Survey 2010 is now live.  Its purpose is to better understand
the demographics and opinions of the Perl community.  You can complete
the survey at http://survey.perlfoundation.org - it should take about
10 to 15 minutes.  Once you've done that, please let your relevant
friends and colleagues know about the survey so they can complete it as
well.  My aim is to get a response of over 1000 individuals, and to
run the survey (lightly adapted) every two or three years so we can
see how the community changes over time.  The official announcement of
the survey is here:

Greetings,

I'm hiring a perl programmer into my group at TriQuint Semiconductor.
Please save me from the barrage of resumes that highlight java and .NET
and fail to mention perl even once.

You must submit your resume through the jobvite site -- I cannot accept
resumes sent directly to me.

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you via jobvite.

  Wed. June 9th, 6:53pm at FreeGeek ? 1731 SE 10th Ave.

Topic:   C'Dent, the Acmeism, and Everyone
Speaker: Ingy d?t Net

Ingy will give a talk about:

  Acmeism - Programming above programming languages
  C'Dent - A portable module programming language
  Stardoc - An Acmeist documentation system
  TestML - An Acmeist unit test language

Imagine writing a Perl module, and then uploading it to RubyGems and 
PyPi and a dozen other language repositories as a native module for 
that language. C'Dent compiles modules Perl, Python, Ruby and 
JavaScript modules to many languages. Stardoc reformats POD to many 
other formats. TestML lets you write one set of tests that all the 
compiled modules must pass before shipping.

This is the future. This is Acmeism.

As always, the meeting will be followed by social hour at the LuckyLab.

Well, I missed that... driving 650 miles was more time consuming than  
I thought. :)

So, not knowing where the good & recommended stuff is (short of using  
Yelp), I happened to see (while riding my bike downtown) my favorite  
place from Bend (Deschutes Brewery), so I will pop into that fine  
establishment tonite.

If anyone can share a favorite restaurant due to the excellent quality  
and preparation of food, then I'd be happy to get a few recs. Pls  
share your experience. Seeking Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. :)

Cheers,
DK

Buster's BBQ <http://www.bustersbarbecue.com/Directions_Tigard.htm> on SW
Barbur (and other locales, but that's closest) has the best Texas-style BBQ
in town. Excellent meat.
The best Gyros in town are in a little hole-in-the-wall, Foti's Deli on East
Burnside<http://maps.google.com/maps/place?client=ubuntu&channel=cs&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=Greek+Deli+East+Burnside+Portland&fb=1&gl=us&hq=Greek+Deli+East+Burnside&hnear=Portland&cid=8678004556288383801>
.
Portland has multiple 'pods' <http://www.foodcartsportland.com/> of food
carts <http://pdxplate.com/blogs?tid[]=152>; my fave is Mohammed's
Ugarit<http://www.foodcartsportland.com/2009/11/02/ugarit-mediterranean-meals/>(Syrian)
on the west side of SW 10th downtown, along the trolley tracks,
north of Alder.
Nicholas <http://nicholasrestaurant.com/> (Lebanese) is a local institution
with three locations;
Huber's <http://hubers.com/> downtown has the best Spanish coffee, and is
the oldest restaurant in the city.
Ringside <http://www.ringsidesteakhouse.com/> downtown is a classic,
nationally-rated steak house.
Upscale food at moderate prices may be had downtown at the Western Culinary
Institute <http://www.chefs.edu/Portland/Restaurant.asp> - reservation
recommended.
This guide <http://www.linuxfund.org/portland/food.php> is also reliable.
Voodoo Doughnuts <http://shop.voodoodoughnut.com/> is also a local
institution; in a slightly sleazy block next to one of the planet's most
hetero adult theaters <http://raysparistheatre.com/html/faq.html>.
