[Nottingham-pm] Nottingham.pm in December/January

[James Green]

Hi all

At LPW, as well as the excellent talks, the free beer and the good
company, I was lucky enough to get to catch up with the leaders of
most of the other UK PM groups, and I'm feeling inspired.

I believe the plan for December is still to take the month off -- but
in January I hope to have an announcement about a technical event! My
plan, if there's sufficient interest, would be to hold these in
addition, rather than instead, of the current social events.

For those who aren't familiar with the format, the rough idea would be
to meet around the same time as usual (say 7 to 7.30) in either a
booked conference room, or a booked private room in a pub, and for
anywhere from 1-4 speakers to give short (I guess anywhere from 5 to
25 minute) presentations about ... well, any interesting technical
topic is welcome :-) Some vague connection to Perl would be even
better. I guess if talks and the discussions in between last a couple
of hours, those who so wish can head to a pub after -- and those who
need to get away can do so.

Details will follow, but if anybody has suggestions about venues,
ideas for a talk they could give, or questions about what kind of talk
would be appropriate, feel free to ping me on or off list and we can
talk about it!

Cheers all,
James ... ON THE TRAIN! HELLO!
