We need a venue for May, July, September, and November.

November is always weird due to Thanksgiving, so we might do a
different date and make it a social/fun (think Dynamic Language Death
Match or Blinkenlighten).    That gives us plenty of time to scheme
and come up with something fun.

We also need speakers.   Matt Heusser has volunteered to do a perl
intro, although I forgot which month he wanted.    I wouldn't mind
doing an OO perl tutorial or an overview of the various ORM's if
there's interest.

Even if you don't want to speak, we need ideas for talks or other
events for the meetings.     For instance, it might be time to talk
about Perl 6 again and maybe see some demos on PUGS.

Here's the room schedule - "A & B only" is still bigger than the
computer lab we were in for January and has a better A/V setup.

> February      Room A & B only
> March         Room A & B only
> April         Rooms A,B & C
> May           *********None - Blood Drive*********
> June          Rooms A,B & C
> July          *********None - Blood Drive*********
> August        Rooms A,B & C
> September     *********None - Blood Drive*********
> October       Rooms A,B & C
> November      *********None - Blood Drive*********

I was going to do april, but May works as well.

Think of it a different way:  If you would like to attend perl mongers, but it's too far to drive on lunch, and you would like to have free perl training offered for your entire development group, and you have an open boardroom, talk to Al about hosting the May meeting ...

Since we had no volunteers for a talk this Friday, we're going to
switch it to be a social gathering at Mongolian Barbecue (the official
non-official GR.pm meeting place) on 28th St..

BD's Mongolian Barbecue
2619 28th St Se, Grand Rapids, MI
(616) 957-7500

I'll be there around 11:30am.    If anybody gets there first, get a
table for 8-10 people.
