SPUGsters,
Please participate in this meeting, and the next, by volunteering to
talk a bit about the "Damianiacal" modules that you use in your work.
For my part, I'll be talking about Getopt::Declare and Lingua::EN::Inflect.
Which modules do *you* want to talk about?

May 2002 Seattle Perl User's Group Meeting
------------------------------------------------------
Title: "Damianiacal Modules", Part II
Speaker: Various SPUGsters
Time: Tuesday, April 21, 2002 7-9pm
Location: SAFECO bldg, Brooklyn St. and NE 45th St.
Cost: Admission is free and open to the general public.
Info: http://seattleperl.org/
Topics:
The theme for this meeting, continuing from the
previous one, will be a look at some of the many
modules contributed by Damian Conway to the Perl
Community (via CPAN).
The idea is that SPUGsters who are using his modules will
describe them to us, show us how they're using them in
their work, and give us a greater appreciation for what
Damian has made available and how we might increase our
productivity by using his software. Alternatively, those
who have merely been *thinking* about using a certain
module might seize this opportunity to lead a discussion
on it, to inspire them to learn more. (There's nothing
like committing to teaching somebody about something to
motivate you to increase your understanding of it!)
Not coincidentally, the timing of these meetings will
allow any questions that arise about "Damianiacal
Modules" to be answered by The Damian himself, when he
visits us in July.
Those wishing to participate please post a short message
to the list indicating what module(s) you want to cover,
how you are currently using it (if so), and for which
meeting you'd like your presentation scheduled. I'll serve
as moderator, and get back to you with Module "Bindings".
Also not coincidentally, those attending these meetings
will be told how they can help continue the flow of
Damianiacal Modules by contributing to "The Perl
Foundation." In addition, Consultix will be raffling off
some seats to Damian's corporate July classes (see
www.teachmeperl.com) for those who submit checks made out
to The Perl Foundation at the next SPUG meeting ($100
minimum). So please bring your checkbooks along! 8-}

which you can pick and choose when designing your

building where the meeting will take place. The phone number is
527-5247. If you're planning to be there, please post a message to
the list indicating your expected arrival time. (Tim is planning
to arrive at about 5:30.)
As usual, those seeking liquid input are invited to congregate at
the Bigtime Brewery and Alehouse, to conduct their preparations
for the 7pm meeting. See the web-site for more details.
