Full details are available at http://thousand-oaks.pm.org/ as always. Well...not quite full details. We don't have any presenters. Are there any volunteers? Be bold! Our group is friendly and welcoming, and in my case at least, astonishingly ignorant of basic Perl stuff. Anything you tell me will probably be news! Even if you don't present, feel free to come by. There's always something worth discussing!

Maybe a talk about RabbitMQ and the modules on CPAN for interacting with it? Maybe hold off on officially adding me, and if you still don't have your presenter slots filled you can throw me in closer to the date.

Our presenters will be Tony Gasparovic, who will describe a home security system he wrote in Perl, and Barry Brevik, who will present an example of non-blocking I/O in pure Perl. And Randal Schwartz will be Among Those Present. What's not to love? See you on the eighth!

In-Reply-To: <4F288CC5.3040206@valueclick.com> References: <4F285098.7050808@valueclick.com> <4F288CC5.3040206@valueclick.com> Message-ID: I should be able to make it (depends on my wife's work schedule at the hospital, but I think she's off that night, which means I'm available). That being the case, I'm wondering if I might ask for five or ten minutes at the end, beginning, during the intermission, or even at the pub afterwards to brainstorm on a problem I'm having with CPAN smoke testers that is stalling progress on Inline::CPP. I've already been working pretty closely with Rob "sisyphus" (current maintainer of Inline, Inline::C, and InlineX::CPP2XS), but we're both stumped. We haven't gotten any additional clues from the inline mailing list, and a message to the smoke-test-discuss didn't get us very far either. Anyone wanting to look ahead of time check the CPAN distribution for Inline::CPP version 0.33_008 Developer's release, see the current test results here: http://static.cpantesters.org/distro/I/Inline-CPP.html#0.33_008 and/or look at my github repo's 'dev' branch for Inline::CPP. The github repo is here: git at github.com:daoswald/Inline-CPP.git In brief the issue is that when the test suite is run by smoke testers there's a strong possibility that they will issue a FAIL because Inline::CPP can't locate Parse::RecDescent. The common solutions such as ensuring Makefile.PL is writing out the PREREQ_PM parameter seem to have all been checked. The issue seems to be a bad interaction between how smoke test configurations constrain @INC and how Inline (a dependency for Inline::CPP) fiddles with @INC. Attempts to load Parse::RecDescent chronologically before Inline gets loaded haven't helped much, though a test script that use does a "use_ok" on Parse::RecDescent passes if it doesn't load Inline::CPP. I would be looking for ideas on how to track down where things are going awry. Maybe that's off topic, or too obscure of an issue to be worthy of the Mongers time, but if there's an interest, I could sure use a suggestion or two.
