I'm taking the resounding silence (except for Bob -- thanks Bob!), as tacit approval of the idea. I've managed to secure the auditorium in Qualcomm's building Q at 6455 Lusk Blvd., San Diego, CA 92121. I have the auditorium scheduled for the usual meeting time of 7pm - 9pm on Monday, 13 August 2007. I'll let Bob give the official go-ahead and, if/when he does, I'll update the web site to reflect this month's venue. As I mentioned before, Qualcomm does have a public wifi network. We should also have access to a projector if anyone is interested in presenting anything (I recall there being interest at the last meeting). There won't be any food provided, but feel free to bring your own. I am working to see if I can get someone to give us free food, and I'll let you all know if I have any success. If we like this, I can try to reserve the auditorium every month. Alternatively, we can only reserve it for those months we would like to have a presentation. I'll leave that for the group to discuss. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: <20070801224538.GB19732@energoncube.net> Greetings fellow Mongers, It's now August, and that means it's time to start planning for our August meeting, there will be a bunch to chat about this month: * Con's: OSCON, ComicCon, DamianCon-way, ThisCon, ThatCon, and maybe even INeedToGoToACon-Con * People: Who is attending, why are you attending, what do you want for attending? * Reading: On-line, off-line, in-line, and out-of-line reading. * Writing: What are you writing? What kind of tools are you using? What kind of help do you need? * Meetings: Time and places, format and subjects, food and drinks, for future meetings. Speaking of meetings, we're changing the meeting location this month. We'll discuss how well the new venue works for us and decide if we would like to continue at the new facilities. So bring all of your questions, comments, concerns, ideas, insights, interests, and imagination to the meeting on August 13, 7PM at Qualcomm's building Q at 6455 Lusk Blvd., San Diego, CA 92121. If you can't make it or need assistance getting to the meeting, please let me know.

I was chatting with the organizer of FOSSCON[0] this morning. She told me that expo hall booths for non-profit groups will be free of charge, and she would love it if the San Diego Perl Mongers had a booth. What does everyone think of this? I'd be more than happy to manage a booth on my own, but it would be great if others wanted to help out and represent our group. Just to get people thinking about what's involved, here's a starter list of ideas for our potential booth. - Banner with logos (Perl, San Diego, and otherwise) - Perl Monger shirts (San Diego version?) for a donation - Take donations for the Perl Foundation - Something to hand out (business cards?) so people remember to visit our web site or what-not - Programming contests [0] http://www.fosscon.org/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Also, I've managed to arrange for food. Probably pizza. It would help if I could get a head count of people likely to come, but it's not necessary (I can guess based on the last few meetings). > I hope too see everyone there. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

The OC Perl Mongers[0] have recently become active again. If you haven't hit them up already, perhaps they can be cajoled into having an emergency social (London.pm-style). I'll be up in Lake Forest on Tuesday night, but I'm afraid I'm booked up until at least 11pm. Don't know about the schedules of the rest of us. We seem to be a pretty busy group overall.

Message-ID: <20070830055823.GH7417@chrisgrau.com> I've been meaning to ping the list for the last couple of days. It's been a little over two weeks since our last meeting, and it's a little less than two weeks until our next. First off, now that people have had some time to think (or forget) about it, does anyone have any thoughts on the auditorium setting? Second, does anyone have an idea for a topic for September? If we have a topic, I can reserve the auditorium again. There was a small discussion on IRC about web frameworks. I don't think any of us have really used them at all. I know they're on my TODO list of things to try using in anger. Maybe we can have a series of short presentations on different frameworks. Pros, cons, suck, doesn't suck. Off the top of my head, I can think of CGI::Application[0], Maypole[1], Catalyst[2], Jifty[3], and Gantry[4]. And people say Perl isn't hip anymore. Perl has frameworks!

I like the auditorium. From my experience at GR.pm, I'd prefer to maintain at least 3-4 of the more socially-oriented meetings per-year, at a different venue. The talk thing gets old after a while and it's fun to just let the conversation wander like it does when we meet at Panera. > Second, does anyone have an idea for a topic for September? If we have > a topic, I can reserve the auditorium again. Web frameworks works for me. The other topic I think would be neat is ORM tools like Class::DBI, DBIx::Class, Rose::DB, etc.. The talk we had last time was interesting, so another demonstration of Perl in production would be great. > There was a small discussion on IRC about web frameworks.
