[Van-pm] Tech Meeting, 12th March 2009 @ Sophos

[Scott McWhirter]

Hi all,

I've just updated the Vancouver.pm wiki with details of the 12th March
2009 meeting. We still need to finalize some details.

https://www.socialtext.net/vanpm/index.cgi?meeting_march_12th_2009

Agenda:

Confirmed
* Luke Closs - Git, perl and OCaml - backup utility

Possible
* Robin Clark - Catalyst in use
* Jerome Pimmel - Behaviour Driven Development

Lightning Talks
* Scott McWhirter - Varnish, HTTP caching and acceleration
* Scott McWhirter - Introduction to AWS

Lightning Talks are only 5 minutes long and give a brief introduction
to a subject matter. I would like at least 3 more people to volunteer
for lightning talks about anything they fancy talking about.

Looking forward to it!
