Just a quick note to any and all that may be interested ...

The Melbourne PM group is meeting this evening and of special interest is a talk being presented by Dr. Damian Conway entitled "Extreme Perl" - The following is an email I received from pjf via the Melbourne PM mailing list today with the relevant details:

G'day everyone, Just a quick reminder that Damian Conway (author of Object Oriented Perl) will be presenting a talk TONIGHT at this month' +s Perl Monger's meeting: Where: MyInternet House, Blackwood St, North Melbourne When: Wednesday 13th (TONIGHT) 6pm Topic: Extreme Perl Damian is an excellent and amusing speaker and everyone is welcome, regardless of if they've attended a Perl Mongers meeting before or are on the PM mailing list. I look forward to seeing you all there. All the best, Paul

In addition to this, I'm sure there will be an opportunity for monk-spotting with a few including myself lurking around :-)

 

perl -e 's&&rob@cowsnet.com.au&&&split/[@.]/&&s&.com.&_&&&print'

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    Was fortunate enough to catch Mr Conway's "Extreme Perl" aka "SelfGol" talk at TPC last year. If it's the same talk, you're in for a treat. Buggered if I understood much of it though. I've actually got the code on my cubie wall at work. What can I say, it's a goal - the day I understand the SelfGol code is the day I can honestly say I really grok Perl :-)

    I'm looking forward to Damian's upcoming visit to Toronto later in the spring. I got an email today saying that he has a draft of Exegesis 4 prepared - maybe the Melbourne.pm members will get to see a few sneak peeks? :) Even if not, I'm sure it will be a great evening. Enjoy!

    I'm near San Francisco, so if you wouldn't mind delaying the meeting just a bit, I might just make it...

    What a great trip *that* would be!
