- Join the Omaha Perl Mongers mailing list!
  http://omaha.pm.org

- I haven't tried "hundreds of files," but this uses signals so you're not wasting any system resources:
  http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?POE::Wheel::FollowTail
  The modules Christopher mentioned probably use signals too.

- Everyone I know avoids threading. Polling "hundreds of files" more than once an hour sounds like a really bad option to me.

I am planning on going -- interested in DrRacket.  A group of us have been meeting to go through (albeit slowly) the SICP book.

Have you ever considered RSVP's for meetings to gauge attendance?

Michael

Oop! Scott: We have a taker! Are you still open to presenting tonight at PKI?

If so we should meet at PKI first -- the projector is much better in our normal room across the street.   :)

> Have you ever considered RSVP's for meetings to gauge attendance?

Personally I'm too lazy/non-commital to RSVP for most things. I tend to not know for sure until 2 hours before the event, which tends to do organizers very little good.   :)

That said, if you're volunteering to be RSVP Tzar that'd be great!

I'll plan on meeting at PKI.

Michael - I'd be interested joining your SICP group if possible. Do you want to discuss DrRacket with regards to SICP instead of Land of Lisp?

As far as I know, there's no one besides myself at ODYNUG actually working through Land of Lisp.

Interesting...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenkins_%28software%29

   "The project renamed itself after a dispute with Oracle who claims the right to trademark the Hudson name and has applied for such a trademark as of December 2010."

Sean: Is Omni Hotels still using Hudson?

Anyone else in Omaha using Jenkins/Hudson?

And I feel that manually creating CRUD is more work but you know what is going on vs depending on another module. How many use modules that implement CRUD vs manually creating CRUD actions in controllers?

Do both.  :)

For modern sexy wow "it just works!" I recommend this one nowadays:

   http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Catalyst::Plugin::AutoCRUD

Then you poke around, learn how it works, modify its output, and/or modify it to be your own CRUD engine.  :)

Rumor has it my new employer may now be hiring another Perl telecommuter. Drop me your resume if you're available and interested.

Also still hearing rumors about them wanting to hire a telecommute "Java/.NET guy/gal" and an "HTML/CSS/js guy/gal."
