Victoria.pm will meet at its regular date, time, and place on Tuesday,
July 20, 7pm, at UVic. Abram reserved CIT 120 as usual; email if you
don't know how to get there.
Darren Duncan will give... "a presentation I gave to the Victoria
Macintosh Users Group 2 years ago about how to make a simple personal
genealogy database using FileMaker Pro (similar target users as Access,
but much better).
"The adapted version will use SQLite as the database, and the interface
will be a simple Perl program that uses DBI and DBD::SQLite. As with
the VMUG meeting, I will distribute the instructions/nodes (and code in
this case) in advance (by posting them to this list; with VMUG it was
in the monthly newsletter). You will be able to try it out and
experiment with modifications in advance. Then at the meeting I will
go over the instructions verbally and demonstrate the program
working. I will also field questions, plus have an interactive session
where we can modify the database or make a different one and write
working Perl code to manipulate it."
Other topics to be covered as time permits; make requests for anything
particular.

the signs still say CIT until approximately September.
