Don't miss Grand Rapids Perl Mongers this month!  Perl evangelist,
CPAN contributor, and "Pro Perl Debugging" author Andy Lester will be
joining us from Chicago to present "The A-Z Guide To Becoming a CPAN
Author".

Date/Time:

Andy's talk will be next TUESDAY, October 25 from 11:30am - 1:00pm at
the Priority Health conference center.  PLEASE NOTE THE DATE CHANGE!

Abstract:

Andy Lester will present an overview of what it takes to create a
module for distribution on the CPAN, the public repository of code for
the Perl community.  You'll learn how to turn your code into a useful
package that others around the world can use.  If you've ever wanted
to give back to Perl or open source, this talk will guide your way,
from the first inklings of an idea, to ongoing maintenance of your
software.

Speaker Bio:

Andy has 25 modules on the CPAN, and is a regular speaker at the
O'Reilly Open Source Conference, Yet Another Perl Conference, and user
groups around the country.  He leads a department of programmers for
Follett Library Resources in McHenry, IL.   "Pro Perl Debugging,"
which Andy co-authored, has just been published by Apress.

Directions:

The Priority Health Conference Center is located at 3111 Leonard St NE
in Grand Rapids.  It is next door to the Red Hot Inn on the corner of
East Beltline and Leonard.  From I-96/196, take the East Beltline exit
and head north about a mile until you hit Leonard St.  Take a Michigan
left and it's the second building on your right.

Registration:

Please RSVP.

There is never a fee for a Grand Rapids Perl Mongers meeting. 
However, because of the popularity of Andy's talk last year (100+
attendees), we are requesting RSVPs prior to the meeting.  Simply
reply to this e-mail (or send an e-mail to matth at everysoft.com) and
let us know you'll be coming.  Visitors and new members are always
welcome.

Priority Health, one of our corporate sponsors, will provide free
pizza for those who RSVP!  You can still show up if you haven't
RSVP'd, but you won't get any lunch.  Because of the expected number
of attendees, we will not be able to provide pizza (and maybe seats)
to anyone who does not RSVP.
