[singapore-pm] Thanks for an awesome Perl Meetup last week!

[Gaurav Vaidya]

Hey everybody,

This is long overdue, but thanks so much for the wonderful Perl  
Mongers meetup last week. A writeup [1] and some photos [2] are now  
finally online. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, hope you all did as well,  
and look forward to a bigger and better Meetup #2.

I think some of you aren't on the mailing lists [3]; the mailing list  
is the best place to find out about upcoming events and chat with the  
other Mongers. Of course, I'll probably be advertising the meetup on  
all the places I advertised it last time, so you probably won't miss  
out even if you don't.

Singapore.pm is one of the open source groups working with the Free  
and Open Source Alliance, Singapore (FOSA.sg) [6]. FOSA.sg is working  
hard to organize Software Freedom Day Singapore 2009 [7] on the 18th  
and 19th of September, 2009; events will be organized at SMU on both  
days, with an open software celebration at the plaza of the National  
Library at Bugis all day Saturday. I'll forward full programmes to  
Singapore.pm once they become available, but if you want to help make  
SFDS awesome, please see the website for details on helping us or drop  
me an e-mail.

If you're interested in other open source projects or open source in  
general, check out LUGS' list [4]. In particular, one of the biggest  
regular get togethers of open source geeks is the monthly Singapore  
Linux Meetup Group [5].

Once again, thanks so much to you all for coming, and I hope to see  
you again in September!

cheers,
Gaurav
