[kw-pm] Reminder: kw.pm February Meeting

[fishbot]

Just to clarify, this is a presentation, and not a live coding
session.  I iteratively developed a very simple webserver in a
few hours, doing it one logical, runnable step at a time.  As I
went, I saved off the code at each step.  I'll be showing the
code, running it, discussing some of the traps and tricks one
step at a time.

It will be code-heavy, but I've arranged things into easily
digestible chunks, you'll not have to look at more than about 5
lines of code at a time.

If you've done this sort of thing before, then please come and
share your own tricks, problems and success stories.  I'm
anticipating that this will quickly dissolve into a roundtable.

Regards,
fishbot

> Synopsis: I've been working for the last few years with webprotocols,
> particularly testing proxies and servers. The key to fast understanding has been
> writing my own clients and servers - often rapid thumbnails. You can write a
> (flawed and stripped down) webserver in an hour in Perl. I'll show what a 15
> minute webserver looks like, and what the extra 45 minutes buys you.

> As last month (but unlike all previous months) we'll be meeting in BMH 1035 at
