  Dallas.p6m meeting soon. We are meeting next week (Tuesday\, June 9th 7:00PM) at
  a coffee shop with free wifi. The address is \;985 W Bethany Dr Allen\, TX 75013 (Pete's Coffee inside the Market Street).\n\nThis is a pre-YAPC|10 meeting\, so the agenda will b

 st beginning\, all agenda plans are tentative and are open to changes. We'r
 e also looking for speakers and presentations\, locals only (no travel fund
 ing yet).Also\, since this will be our third meeting\, I have start
 ed a Google Group (possibly temporary) to help filter any future group traf
 fic from pestering the Perl 6 mailing list. The direct invitees from last m

  time. See you there!-Jason "s1n" Switzer\n\nView

I think it would be better to call it Dallas.pm and just talk about  
Perl 6 in the meeting announcements.  The key is that we don't want  
people to think they must choose one or the other.  Technologically,  
Perl 5 and Perl 6 are very different, but culturally, they're very  
similar.


Keeping Perl 5 and Perl 6 groups together also means that we will  
increase cross-pollination of Perl 6 onto the Perl 5 people.


At Madison.pm, I give a 5-minute Perl 6 update each month.  It's easy  
to collect material because Rakudo and Parrot each release monthly, so  
I can always just rehash the release announcements.  I've found that  
the Perl 5 users are quite interested (and occasionally amazed).

	While I don't deny the truth of what you're saying, it seems to me 
that languages get a "buzz" with the "newness factor"; people are interested 
in them for no reason other than that they're new.  It seemed this way to me 
with Python and Ruby, and probably Java too.


	I'm wondering if we can't get the "newness factor" by branding Perl 6 
slightly differently, while at the same time carrying the existing Perl 
community across the 5/6 boundary.


	In other words, I think the situation should be a both/and, not an 
either/or.

This is more to the world of Perl 6, but you're the first person to go  
out there and do this.

I live in Allen, so might be there. That address is where Market  
Street is right?

What is the name of the coffee shop?

Dallas.p6m

2009-03-18 Thread fREW Schmidt
Hello friends!
s1n and I decided that we would start Dallas.p6m as we are close to each
other geographically speaking.  We are meeting tomorrow (Thursday, March 19,
7:00PM) at a coffee shop with free wifi.  The address is 985 W Bethany Dr
Allen, TX 75013.

So far it looks like it will be s1n, me, and two or three of my co-workers.
 We don't really have an agenda, but I figure I will ask s1n about some PIR
stuff and if he wants I can chat about some perl 6 stuff (although he may
know more about that as well.)

Anyway, you are invited to come and have a good time!  We will probably be
more organized in the future, but for now this will work :-)
