<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hi Dave,<br><br></div>Belated thanks for stepping in to keep TPM going .. having been away from web development for eighteen months, I don't have anything novel to offer in terms of a presentation. My last contract required nothing more technically complicated than being able to deal with HoHs, map statements, and being smart about caching. It was interesting, paid the bills, but wasn't really cutting edge.<br><br></div>I have been working on learning Go, and I'd love to present on that, but I can't do that until February -- that will give me enough time to chew through the subject matter and create a decent presentation (working title: How Far I Got With Go In A Month). If there's no talk for January, perhaps we could just meet up for supper/beer instead.<br><br></div>Alex<br><div><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 1:06 PM, Dave Doyle <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dave.s.doyle@gmail.com" target="_blank">dave.s.doyle@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">My thanks for the kind words from several of you.<div><br></div><div>However, no one has yet stepped up on this.

I will happily continue to provide Influitive as the space but I think I'm kinda done organizing. If anyone wants to step up, please reply to this on the list so all can see. I will hand over control of the <a href="http://meetup.com" target="_blank">meetup.com</a> account as well of course (be warned, it costs about USD $90 per 6 months to maintain, which I have been paying).</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for all that have done talks in the past for me, I appreciate it, but it's time for me to make way for someone else. If I can't get someone to step in, I'm going to have to fold things up.
