Our next meeting should be on the 18th... should we expect some frosh
there? Should we do some sort of introduction to Perl, or something on
Perl for blogs and wikis, or Perl for Google/Amazon/eBay, or... what?

There will be at least some new faces there, none of which are familiar
with perl.
My life will get back to normal after the 22nd, when our app goes live
at work.
Until then my attempt to get the students of UVIC coding are on hold.

Subject: [VPM] Victoria Perl Mongers Meeting: October 18
Message-ID: <6.1.2.0.2.20051014090843.023a2318@mail.webquarry.com>
Victoria.pm will meet at its regular date and time at UVic on Tuesday,
October 18, 7pm. (The room will be announced the day before.)
Clarke Brunsdon will talk about a project of his using POE. That's the
Perl Object Environment, an extremely cool and powerful tool for
asynchronous operations. If you want to write an IRC bot that
simultaneously tails log files and looks for stock market changes, POE
is for you. POE is to event-driven programming what the Tower of
London is to jewelry.
Many other Perl Mongers groups around the world are talking about Ruby
on Rails. If anyone here has experience with it and can talk about it
or at least answer questions at a meeting on it, please let me know.
Other topics to be covered as time permits; make requests for anything
particular.

Victoria.pm will meet at its regular date and time at UVic tomorrow,
Tuesday, October 18, 7pm at a *new location*:
The Engineering Office Wing, room 450. See
http://www.uvic.ca/buildings/eow.html .
That's fairly distant from our usual location (which, hopefully, we
will return to in the future).

If we get a double-digit attendance I will give away my copy of Higher
Order Perl by Mark Jason Dominus to a randomly selected supplicant,
provided they don't mind that my kittens got to it first and the cover
has a few teeth marks...
