Hi KC Mongers -

I haven't heard any real dissent or complaints about the proposal to
move locations, so let's try one meeting in January at Barley's in
Shawnee on Tuesday, January 9th from 7pm to 8ish or so.

That's:
Barley's Brewhaus
16649 Midland Drive
Shawnee, KS 66217
http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=Barley's+Brewhaus,+shawnee,+ks&ie=UTF8&ll=39.010247,-94.769611&spn=0.109911,0.213203&z=13&iwloc=A&om=1
(Please note, this is NOT the Barley's at 119 and Quivera.)

If you're coming from midtown, near the old meeting spot, take 75th
street and head west. It will eventually turn into Midland and curve
around a little bit. Barley's is in the shopping center on the
Southeast corner of Midland and Renner. Renner is about 100 yards east
of I-435.

If you're coming from just about any other part of town, get on 435
toward the west side of town. Take the Midland exit and head about 100
yards East on Midland to Renner.

We'll discuss the new location and try to decide if we should keep it
there, or do something else.

Since perl 5.10 is most likely due to be released today
(http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2007-12/msg00385.html),
I'd be interested in hearing about some of the new features in
5.10. If no one volunteers in advance to describe some of them to the
gang, I'll look into some of the new features and be able to describe
a few of them. I'll by no means be an expert by then, so if you've
used any of the new features, please help me out a bit.

Other possible topics to discuss may include:
* David Nicol's proposal for Vienna.pm's Management System for TODO
  Test Bounties:
  http://socialtext.useperl.at/woc/index.cgi?management_system_for_todo_test_bounties
* Your recent, interesting project
* your questions or comments about perl

If you've never been to a KC Perl Mongers meeting, this would be a
great time to come. I'll buy a beer for each first-timer (provided
you're of age).

I'll also update the website to reflect the new location for this
meeting.

See you on January 9th at 7pm!

-Andy
