[PLUG] ANNOUNCEMENT: Audrey Tang on Jifty -- Sat Jun 24th 7pm

[Eric Wilhelm]

Perl users / web developers / others with interest in weirdness.

Note the short notice -- we're winging it.

Audrey Tang is the amazingly prolific hacker with a really long list of 
CPAN modules under her belt, an implementation of Perl6 in Haskell, and 
has recently been working on the nifty new Perl web framework "Jifty".

The talk will mostly be about Jifty, including its mind-bendingly nifty 
schema declaration syntax, ORM, application-level continuations, and 
other features that put Rails to shame.

The talk will be *this Saturday night* at Free Geek, followed by a 
migration to the Lucky Lab for beverages.

Mongers,

As I mentioned at this week's meeting, Audrey Tang (formerly Autrijus)
of Pugs fame will be in Portland this month.

She has agreed to speak to us on the 24th at 7pm.

This will be at free-geek

From Audrey:  "I can talk about Pugs/Perl6 _and_ Jifty, but please ask
the mongers to pick a priority in case that I got too exhausted to do
both
talks. :-)"

Which topic would you all like to hear first?  Vote via mail (on or
off list.)  Don't be shy.

So, there's the announcement.  Tell your friends.  Tell your boss.
Cancel your anniversary dinner, etc.
