We hope that you will forward this email to your friends and colleagues. You see we have slotted a 10-min "Introductions" item on the agenda and we would like see many new faces! NEWS & ANNOUNCEMENTS Take a look at our brand new web site (http://stonybrook.pm.org), as we would like to have some of you involved in content generation, and we will open the floor to ideas about what would you like to see on the site. For example, I'm interested in having a section titled "Perl Solutions" dedicated to useful, reusable code that is too small to become a Perl module on CPAN. Our mailing list is up and running, so please make sure you subscribe ;) Check our web site for details. PRESENTATIONS The main course includes two speakers: * Robert Rothenberg will be talking about past YAPC's and YAPC North America 2004, which will be in Buffalo, NY, June 16-18. We will be organizing a small trip there as I hear that it is a lot of fun. If you are interested in sending an abstract the deadline is 3/27. So mark your calendars. * Lucas Carey who will introduce us to Bioperl, a collection of Perl modules that facilitate the development of perl scripts for bioinformatics applications. AFTER PARTY After the presentations we plan to discuss speakers/presentations/ideas for next meeting(s), and how can we outreach to other departments/affiliated organizations/user groups. At that point everybody will be looking forward for a nice dinner, so we will motion to move the meeting to a nearby restaurant that serves adult beverages ;) Best regards, Kostas Pentikousis & Robert Rothenberg From lcarey at odd.bio.sunysb.edu Tue Jan 27 16:06:00 2004 From: lcarey at odd.bio.sunysb.edu (Lucas Carey) Date: Mon Aug 2 21:37:44 2004 Subject: [Stonybrook-pm] are we going to meet? Message-ID: <20040127220600.GA24891@odd.bio.sunysb.edu> I just got a Winter Storm Warning from the uni. Looking at the weather it says only 4-6inches. I'll be on campus, and think we should meet anyway, though putting it off two weeks would probably help me with my quals next week. -Lucas From wlkngowl at i-2000.com Tue Jan 27 16:12:33 2004 From: wlkngowl at i-2000.com (Robert Rothenberg) Date: Mon Aug 2 21:37:44 2004 Subject: [Stonybrook-pm] are we going to meet?

We figured if classes are cancelled then we might as well post-pone the meeting. Is February 7 or 11 better? On 1/27/2004 5:06 PM Lucas Carey wrote: > I just got a Winter Storm Warning from the uni.
