- Panel discussion on favorite scripting languages?
Perl vs Ruby vs Python ? (dibs on Ruby :-)
- Something I've been bouncing around in my head for a bit:
Show and tell of favorite hacks[1]/programs/tricks.
Everyone comes with 30 seconds to a few minutes preprared
(where prepared means anywhere from a link to the project page
to a running demo to a short tutorial ) and we try to share
the distributedly collected wisdom. And we do it in such
a way that it all gets dumped on a web page for posterity.
Thoughts?

[1] Hacks meaning the cool fun, simple accomplishments, not the illegal
ones, of course. I blame the emense stress from the project I'm
working on for even stopping to explain this...
