But they happen every month, hell or high water. Or drought. I wrote some code (huzzah) for social meeting dates. Actually I wrote very little code (DateTime::Set is cool). Here's the result: 2010-05-26 Wednesday 2010-06-24 Thursday 2010-07-26 Monday 2010-08-26 Thursday 2010-09-24 Friday 2010-10-26 Tuesday 2010-11-26 Friday 2010-12-24 Friday 2011-01-26 Wednesday 2011-02-24 Thursday 2011-03-24 Thursday 2011-04-26 Tuesday 2011-05-26 Thursday 2011-06-24 Friday 2011-07-26 Tuesday 2011-08-26 Friday 2011-09-26 Monday 2011-10-26 Wednesday 2011-11-24 Thursday 2011-12-26 Monday DOW distrubution Monday: 3 Tuesday: 3 Wednesday: 3 Thursday: 6 Friday: 5 Basically the algorithm is to have it on the 26th of each month, moving it backwards 2 days if it happens to fall on a weekend. This gives us a bias towards end of the week. The algorithm is also simple enough to calculate 'by hand' if necessary and spreads it out over the week (I know many people can never make it on particular days of the week). I need to devise a solution to the 'falls on a public holiday' thing, but that's easy enough. Probably either just skip for that month (nooo!) or move it another day backward. - Justin -- Justin Hawkins justin at hawkins.id.au From justin at hawkins.id.au Thu Apr 8 18:20:14 2010 From: justin at hawkins.id.au (Justin Hawkins) Date: Fri, 9 Apr 2010 10:50:14 +0930 Subject: [adelaide.pm] Tech meeting, was Re: next perl mongers In-Reply-To: <2EA8AAA0-DB5E-4BD8-B71D-231663139B09@hawkins.id.au> References: <4B7E1E77.2050205@hawtin.net.au> <4B9F23FC.5080107@hawtin.net.au> <73DE9ACF-2677-4C2E-A590-9D90CB1FD1CD@hawkins.id.au> <36eced4d1003171555t25d8586fke94661cb61323426@mail.gmail.com> <1268889768.28322.35.camel@isengaard> <4BA6BDA2.6050308@hawtin.net.au> <4BBA52E5.9050402@hawtin.net.au> <2EA8AAA0-DB5E-4BD8-B71D-231663139B09@hawkins.id.au> Message-ID: <4C610C81-28F7-4154-A14C-3CEA0A24D875@hawkins.id.au> On 08/04/2010, at 9:51 AM, Justin Hawkins wrote: > Preliminary date for the tech meeting is the last week of April (26th-30th).

Probably either just skip for that month (nooo!) or move it another day backward. Implemented. In case you need to work it out by hand, public holidays cause the date to go backwards one day (until it isn't a public holiday or weekend). But you'll never need to remember anyway, because it's now automatically updated on the web page, and (with any luck) in the signature of all mailing list posts. Huzzah! The code allows for overrides of course, so if we need to move a social meeting, we can. Otherwise, we can stop thinking about it and let the Machines do our thinking for us. AS IT SHOULD BE. The venue for socials is currently defaulting to the Exeter, though I've put it down for the Brecknock this coming meeting. - Justin -- Justin Hawkins justin at hawkins.id.au From justin at hawkins.id.au Wed Apr 21 21:58:15 2010 From: justin at hawkins.id.au (Justin Hawkins) Date: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 14:28:15 +0930 Subject: [adelaide.pm] REMINDER: Social tomorrow Message-ID: <1B7344A7-2992-4B5C-9B74-0C60E126DC1D@hawkins.id.au> Folks, don't forget, social at the Brecknock hotel tomorrow night.
