[VPM] Victoria Perl Mongers meeting November 20 - new location

[Darren Duncan]

Hello Charles, welcome to the livemeetings.

Regarding plusthree, I haven't heard of it before, but I do recognize 
the name Sam Tregar from our common involvement in several email 
exchanges, such as the DBI and Bricolage lists.

Regarding your "looking for a good shop" comment, are you implying 
that you don't currently have income, or that you do but are looking 
for something better?

Have you checked in with Mock's employer?  They tried to hire me this 
last January or so, but I was already engaged elsewhere, so then 
ended up later bringing Mock from Vancouver instead.  At the time 
they were looking for lots of people, and maybe they still are.
