Subject: [Chicago-talk] Meeting April 23 - FFI::Platypus
Message-ID: <1C3FC914-E4F0-4396-B8DA-F86C3BBCFE7A@gmail.com>

This month, Dylan Cali will give a presentation on FFI::Platypus[1], a friendly and fast interface to libffi[2]. With FFI::Platypus, you can use native libraries without having to write bindings in XS or one of the Inline modules, and still achieve excellent performance (almost as fast as XS).

Dylan will also show off other performance improvements added to version 1 of ZMQ::FFI[3], an FFI-based wrapper for the zeromq messaging library.

RSVP on the Chicago.PM Meetup page: http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoPM/events/220967211/ <http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoPM/events/220967211/>

Office hours are April 9 this month. RSVP on the Meetup: http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoPM/events/221525547/ <http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoPM/events/221525547/>

At the last presentation, I was asked about potential topics for Perl Mongers talks. If you'd like to give a 30 or 60 minute presentation for Chicago.PM (or indeed any PM group), but don't know what to give a talk on, I've assembled some ideas on a Google Docs page: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FLJS2xUA4K1eMDL7kCUbY__zWuN62nRgorGxf4AOsK4/edit?usp=sharing <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FLJS2xUA4K1eMDL7kCUbY__zWuN62nRgorGxf4AOsK4/edit?usp=sharing>

If you have ideas for topics you'd like to hear about, please add them to the document.

If you have a topic, but have no idea how to give a talk, e-mail me and I'll be happy to help.

This doc is a I call dibs on the Rex topic!  I'll be doing a training
session at work on Rex in the next couple weeks.  Two birds.  One stone.

I have to give a talk on Rex myself at $work, so we should probably compare notes.

I did already promise a few months ago to give a Dist::Zilla talk, so most likely I'll do that for a Perl Mongers presentation. Apparently, I think that if I tell enough people I promised to do it, I'll actually do it. But, I've been liking how we're currently 4 for 4 in different speakers this year (with 2 more already on the schedule).

Doh.  ok.  I think I remember now you did say that about Rex before.  So
you should get first shot at it if you want it.  :)

I was just reading Brian d foy's article at 
http://perltricks.com/article/165/2015/4/10/A-preview-of-Perl-5-22 . 
CGI.pm is going away in 5.22. Since I've used CGI.pm a lot in the 
past, I should get started on updating a lot of legacy code. What is 
the best a good alternative I should invest my time with? 
(mojolicious? dancer?). I primarily used "fatals to browser".

CGI.pm is not going away.  It won?t be installed with default Perl, but you will still be able to install it from CPAN, just like you can get Mojolicious and Dancer from CPAN.

Like Andy said, there's no reason to move old code if that old code is
still working. CGI.pm will be around forever, just now it comes via CPAN.
The biggest reason for ejecting it from the core is that by being in the
core it gave the false impression that (1) it was the recommended way to do
things and (2) it was being actively maintained by P5P, neither of which
was true or has been for years.

Of course my vote for future projects would be for Mojolicious, but then
again, as a core developer, I'm biased I suppose :-)
