The job is mostly Perl, maybe a tiny bit of shell, and a whole lot of SQL. You can safely ignore the C#.NET stuff as I was required to put that in. https://tbe.taleo.net/NA2/ats/careers/requisition.jsp?org=FIRSTTECHCU&cws=5&rid=840 Please apply through the website. Even though I am the manager of the department, I cannot directly interact with anyone until cleared through the "process".

SQLSaturday is an annual free conference that traditionally focuses on SQL Server, but is trying to extend its scope. If you've been doing something interesting with (or to) a database, this may be a good place to give a presentation. They're taking proposals now (see the web site for further details). Arnie writes: > On October 8, 2011, there is a SQLSaturday event at PCC CLIMB Center. We are planning for ~300 participants for the day. (http://sqlsaturday.com/92/eventhome.aspx) > > Previous SQLSaturday events around the country have focused primarily on Microsoft?s product line. For this event in Portland, we are making a concerted effort to push beyond SQL Server and bring in other data storage topics/presenters ?especially PL-SQL, MySQL, and PostgreSQL. I hope that we can provide a broad range of data related topics at the event. - Amy From raanders at cyber-office.net Tue Jul 5 13:20:26 2011 From: raanders at cyber-office.net (Roderick A.

I use App::perlbrew and ignore the system Perl 5: http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?perlbrew Several deployment options exist: one perlbrew per application or one per user or one per compilation of Perl 5. The latter approach works for me, but I don't mind reinstalling all of my CPAN dependencies every time I install a new Perl 5 point release.

I tend to use a combo approach of those suggested: I build a Perl rpm, taking care that it doesn't conflict with the system perl (in terms of rpm dependencies), and then manage app CPAN deps somehow else (usually local::lib of some flavor, but I'm looking forward to taking a peek at Carton).

Message-ID: <4E24538A.6000807@perltraining.com.au> G'day PDX.pm! I'm about to arrive in your fabulous town for the quadruple wonders that are OSCON, GearCon, the Community Leadership Summit, and Trek in the Park! Some of you might know me from my talks or hats at conferences, others might know me as the wacky Australian who wrote autodie. I'll be in town from tomorrow evening (Tuesday 19th) until the weekend after OSCON (next week). Unfortunately, my previous accommodation plans have fallen through, so I'm looking for a place to crash with relatively short notice. I'm easy to house (my baseline for sleeping is aircraft economy seating), am happy to help with chores, can share outrageous stories of adventure, and I have professional massage training. :) If you have an outstanding bug open in autodie, this is also a great way to get it fixed. :) Obviously, offers of couch space (even if just for a night or two) in the earlier part of this timeframe (tomorrow night onwards) are especially appreciated. :) Many thanks in advance, and all the very best!

So if you want to have a Chicagoan (or roughly so) crash on your couch, let me know, too. :-) I'm only going to need accomodations from the night of the 24th to the night of the 29th.
