[Dub-pm] Anyone alive? Meeting?

[Drew Taylor]

Hmm, sounds like the beginnings of a plan. :-)

For those who have never been to a pm meeting, they come in two flavours:
technical and social. Technical meetings generally involve a presentation
about some perl-related topic by a member of the group. Social meetings
generally involve a pub and/or drinks.

I'll be back in Dublin tomorrow afternoon. I'm more than willing to
volunteer to talk about something perlish. Moose and friends come to mind
(near and dear to my heart) but there's plenty of other interesting things
we could talk about as well. If the consensus is to talk shop and Blanch is
OK with everyone, I'll see if my boss is still open to letting us meet in
the $office. Afterwards we could adjourn to the place of one's choosing for
food/drinks.

Probably worth posting to the ILUG and Open lists once we get the details
nailed down to help increase attendance too. Is there local ruby or python
groups? We can show them the light... :-D
