This month, we'll have a selection of short talks from SPUGsters.
If anybody else wants to squeeze in a short talk, let me know.
See details below regarding RSVPs for the pre-meeting dinner.

Here's what we've got so far:

JonathanGardner 
   DateTime, the solution to your date and time problems. 

FredMorris 
   Perl-based firewall monitoring/control gizmo. I did 5
   minutes on this at GSLUG a while back. It's here if you
   want it: http://devil.m3047.inwa.net/pub/fw-control/ 
   5 or 10 minutes to say "everything I know about
   Perl::Tk". 

AsimJalis 
   MDef (http://mdef.sourceforge.net). 
   A system for generating repetitive code using
   self-modifying macros. I will walk through mdef, and
   show you some applications. 
   MDef can be used to generate database wrappers,
   object-oriented classes, HTML, and much more good
   stuff. 

TimMaher 
   Will fill up time left vacant by other speakers, by
   presenting educational excerpts from his vast collection
   of Perl training classes
