Hmmm, Carlsbad is about a 30 minute drive in good traffic (i.e. no
traffic).
By the way, I guess I should actually introduce myself to the list. When
I signed up I thought this was just an *announcement* list. I didn't
realize I could post until I saw Michael's post a few days ago.
I'm really just a small time perl hacker coding up stuff for the business
that my wife and I started back in 1996 (web hosting, domain reg, DNS and
forwarding services). In my spare time, I have coded most of the
management tools (both back end and end user interfaces) used by my wife,
her employees and customers. All coded in perl, most talk to a mysql
database. My full time day job has nothing at all to do with perl.... :(
I look forward to learning more from all of you.
Last year at OSCON I had the pleasure of *formal* perl training from
Randal Schwartz and Tom Phoenix
(http://perl.oreilly.com/news/perlint_0801.html). It was a lot of fun.
Then I went on to sit through talks by the likes of Damian Conway (that
guy's knowledge is incredible).
I can't want until OSCON2002 which starts in less than two weeks (July 22).
