[Ukcoordinators-pm] London.pm Socials

[Tom Hukins]

Hi all,

It's a while since we've discussed anything here so I thought I'd
share news from London.pm about our monthly social meetings.

Historically, we've always had someone responsible for organising our
monthly social meetings.  To include more people in the group's
organisation, meet at more varied venues and have meetings booked in
advance, we've had different people organise every social this year.

I think it's worked well for us:  we've held more varied meetings this
year before in more parts of London.  I wrote up some notes on how we
organise this on the Wiki:

(I note the Wiki's down at the moment)

With a larger group, it's easy for people to not see themselves as
responsible for making the group a success.  I hope that bringing more
people into organisational roles, and thanking them for helping, we
can in time have more people organising a wider variety of Perl events
in London.

It will take time, but I'll let you know how we get on.

Tom
