It can be anything from "here's how I solved a particular problem in Perl" (technical) to "Here's what I think really sucks about Perl" (opinion piece) Is anyone interested in trying a change of venue or is the Black Dog your preferred location? It doesn't lend itself to presentations, in my view, but it does have a good atmosphere for discussion. jpt -----Original Message----- From: Tillman, James Sent: Tuesday, February 03, 2004 6:52 AM To: Tallahassee-pm@pm.org Subject: RE: [Tallahassee-pm] Tallahassee IT related meetings for Feb. 200 4 Speaking of meetings, we need to get our PerlMonger's meetings back on track.

After Mike did all this, I failed to show up for the meeting! As the so-called PM leader, I should have been there and I apologize, Mike, for letting you down. In fact, it seems that only Phillip Tyre managed to show up for Mike's presentation. With that in mind, I would like to propose that we hold our next PM gathering at the same coffee shop Mike discovered ("Never Too Latte" on East Capital Cirle) and I would also like to ask Mike if he would be willing to do his presentation again. Keeping with a pattern of "the second Thursday of the month", our next meeting would be on 3/11. Please put this date on your calendars and I'll send out a reminder 1 week and 2 days in advance of the meeting. I'll ask for a "show of hands" at that time, so we can make sure that we'll have at least a minimum number of attendees. And this time, I'll make sure I show up. jpt From mkeller at yahoo.com Mon Feb 23 14:54:30 2004 From: mkeller at yahoo.com (Michael Keller) Date: Mon Aug 2 21:38:04 2004 Subject: [Tallahassee-pm] Re: Tallahassee-pm Digest, Vol 8, Issue 5 In-Reply-To: <200402231800.i1NI0Rg21463@mail.pm.org> References: <200402231800.i1NI0Rg21463@mail.pm.org> Message-ID: <20040223205430.GB6185@mukappa.mdns.org> I'll be happy to give it another go.

Ironically enough, I just discovered that there is a very important meeting I must attend on the evening of 3/11, so I'd like to propose moving the PM meeting to the week after, which would make it 3/18. Does anyone who wishes to attend have any conflicts for that evening? I'm open to nights other than Thursday, but I remember some of us have regular appts. for other nights. Wow, this planning ahead stuff might just work! jpt On Mon, 2004-02-23 at 15:54, Michael Keller wrote: > I'll be happy to give it another go.
