1.  What's the meeting's exact starting time?  (Or, better still, by  
what time should I be in the lobby so that I can get up the elevators  
with the group?)

2.  I'll be touching upon areas such as these:
(a) Current state of the Parrot virtual machine, and what even a  
total noob can do to contribute to the Parrot project.
(b) Current state of Rakudo, the Perl 6 implementation on Parrot --  
and what you can do to help out Perl 6 now.
(c) Perl 5 Corehackers Project; my piece of the action:  phalanxing  
the worst Larry Wall code ever; how you can help.

There will be handouts for (a) and (b) -- but no pony.  Refreshments  
to follow.
