Colin Jitlal sent out the following D/FW Perl Monger's meeting announcement yesterday evening:

It's that time again....

since this meeting will be held at TI, people planning to attend need to email me with their country of birth (don't ask).

the next DFW Perl Mongers meeting will be a technical presentation given by Patrick Michaud, the Perl6 pumpking on, surprise, surprise, Perl6. This talk will give an overview of Perl6, its history, its architecture (i.e., Perl6, Parrot, and Ponie), and some highlights of the new features and differences from Perl 5.

The talk will be aimed at people who are familiar with Perl 5, but not necessarily experts.

When:10/26/2004, 6:30pm
Where:Texas Instruments South Campus
(2 blocks West of Forest Lane & Greenville Avenue)
South Lobby (sundial entrance) Conference room S1/S2

Notes:

TI security requires that all attendees pre-register. Please contact me or Matt with your name and country of birth. TI security have checkpoints at all entrances to TI facilities, and they will require ID.

Please refer to http://dfw.pm.org/news.html for additional background on Patrick.

Hope to see you all there!

Colin
