| Hello all,
| 
| For those of you who prefer to think of me as the benevolent dictator, I
| thought I'd let you know that we are having a meeting on Thursday July
| 29 2005 at 7:00pm at the Scottsdale Public Library, Civic Center. For
| the (representative-)democratically inclined, I welcome feedback on this
| time/location. I'll make a full anouncement once we have a topic.
| 
| And now for the second part... the presentation / talk portion. Once
| again I refer you to
| 
| http://web.archive.org/web/20040726180006/phoenix.pm.org/wiki/index.cgi?
| PerlMongersIdeas
| 
| for some suggestions. Please mail your suggestions here to the list.
| Ideally I'd like two shorter talks -- a beginner-intermediate one and an
| intermediate-advanced. Scott and I both are willing to talk about all
| sorts of things, and other volunteers are very welcome. Something
| bugging you about some Perl code you're working on? Some module you'd
| like to see in action? Now is the time and place to get the dirt on it!
| 
| recently mentioned suggestions (mostly by Scott... hope he doesn't
| mind):
|   * The making of _Perl 6 Now_
|   * Architecture of "Active Wiki Pages" in TinyWiki (secure server-side
|     execute of Perl in user-edited pages)
|   * How to parse HTML, scrape pages, and crawl sites
|   * A really horrible PDF invoice generator in Perl that'll make you
| want to cry
|   * Theory and use of Perl6::Contexts (ooh, this would be fuuun) --
|     adding Perl 6 style string, integer, boolean, and reference contexts
|     to Perl 5 for a mondo cool code effect with greatly reduced
|     suckiness. This is another B::Generate hack of mine.
|   * Intro to Perl5 objects
|   * Using Perl for the ICFP 2005 Contest (which was all sorts of fun)
|   * Using (pick your favorite web-framework -- lets say
| CGI::Application)
|   * other suggestions / volunteer presentations welcome
| 
| So much to talk about! The floor is open.

| | mode off of the presenter.  Just a thought.
