Wed. October 8th, 6:53pm at FreeGeek -- 1731 SE 10th Ave.
Tonight's meeting will be a hands-on session of running Perl 6.
Jerry Gay of Rakudo Consulting Group will be visiting from Seattle.
Jerry is a key contributor to parrot/rakudo and will be very helpful in
understanding what rakudo can do right now and diagnosing any troubles
that come up.
We will have a short walk-through at the beginning covering some key
differences between Perl 5 and Perl 6, followed by a short session of
essential questions (and hopefully answers.)
This will be a very hands-on learning session and we'll probably be
working in pairs or small groups as well as spending some time reading
documentation and going around sharing what we've learned.
