Thanks to John and Jason for braving the weather and coming in from Lawrence. I hope you guys make it back to another meeting soon! A few interesting things came up. Here's just a recap: - Another entry in the long-standing war for form generators, like HTML::FormHandler and FormFu. I brought up Form::Sensible, which I've started using. I also mentioned tying it in with DBIx::Class. For that, see Form::Sensible::Reflector::DBIC, and check the latest documentation for it in github, since the current release is rather undocumented. - John mentioned that they run a local CPAN mirror at Allen Press. I'm going to twist your arm into giving us some kind of overview of how you do that and how it helps you some night. - There was also some discussion about finding some other Lawrence perl hackers. So you guys from Sunflower cable, the Journal-world and other perl shops out there, speak up! There may be enough of you guys to get together for a pint out there, or just carpool into Barley's next month. - There was universal agreement about the educational benefits of attending YAPC. I think this spring it's in Asheville NC. It's also super cheap, so start preparing to talk your employer into footing the bill for you to attend this year. The 2nd Tuesday of March is the 8th, so I hope to see you all again next month! -Andy From amoore at mooresystems.com Wed Feb 9 06:47:56 2011 From: amoore at mooresystems.com (Andrew Moore) Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2011 08:47:56 -0600 Subject: [Kc] Anybody at Barleys tonight? In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Yeah, we were at a pair of high-top tables in the pool table room. I hope you weren't there and unable to find us! We're always in the same spot, just look for the group with several high-tops pushed together. The room is just small enough that you can meekly peep out a "perl?" and we'll reveal ourselves. I try to keep my eye out for lost folks, and I hope I didn't overlook you! Or, ask any of the waitstaff where all of the nerds that meet every month are. -Andy From davidnicol at gmail.com Wed Feb 9 08:06:08 2011 From: davidnicol at gmail.com (David Nicol) Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2011 10:06:08 -0600 Subject: [Kc] February meeting In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 8:43 AM, Andrew Moore wrote: > - John mentioned that they run a local CPAN mirror at Allen Press.

I briefly had one up at GSI while exploring minimal enterprise linux distributions. It's just an FTP or HTTP server with files in the right places, and there are tools to help set it up. It's an excellent way to centrally manage enterprise software distribution, of course including Perl modules but you can package anything else (RPMs, BSD ports, shared configuration file updates) in CPAN format if you want. And of course there's the security promise of a single point of code entry for auditing, if you're seriously worried that Mark Jason Dominus or such is going to try to leverage CPAN to tunnel through your perimeter.
