[Pdx-pm] Introduction to Parrot -- February meeting in 2 weeks

[Tom Keller]

A brief discussion/prediction of where Parrot will fit into "production" environments would be appreciated too. For me Perl is a tool to make me and co-workers more efficient and less error prone. We use it to automate processes that would otherwise require cutting and pasting, typing, selecting from lists, etc.: data munging and also batch processing of on-line data sources. 

How will Parrot help with these and other practical tasks?

thanks,
Tom
