Kickoff meeting for Cincinnati Perl Mongers
February 15, 2012 at 7pm in the Hive13 lounge.
This will be the reboot for the Cincinnati Perl Mongers group. We can use the projector to share a few short presentations if anyone would like to present. I plan to do some beginner level stuff about what ‘use warnings, use strict, my, etc’ are for. Would be nice if someone talked about CPAN, favorite modules, arrays, hashes, etc. Also, informal talking about what we are using Perl for, cool technologies, etc.
There is a mailing list setup now so please subscribe if you might be interested in attending at some point. Depending on the turnout for the Wednesday group can try other nights too. Nothing is set in stone at this point. If monthly meetings are too much can set it up for every other month or quarterly.
This is really awesome, are perl newcomers welcome?
Yes, I think the idea was we would try to have interesting things to talk about for all skill levels. Perl programmers of any skill level including those who are just interested and have not used it at all are welcome.
I’m not sure what the structure of the meeting will be like, I think Brent is the most logical person to ask for that. I’m going to contribute my perl skills to the group and help anyone I can.
