Jeff Bisbee writes "After a long hiatus, SouthFlorida.pm meetings are
going to start happening regularly again. The meeting will be both
technical and social in nature (bring you laptop if you have one)

We'll be meeting on 7/17 from 7pm until whenever (they close at 11:30pm)

        Undergrounds Coffeehaus
        2743 E. Oakland Park Blvd.
        Oakland Park, FL 33311

Some topics that we may cover...

  * POE, documenting/testing POE actually

  *  memcached

  *  Perl::Critic

  *  Unit testing and coverage with Devel::Cover

  *  Packaging code for CPAN

  *  Module::Starter

  *  ExtUtils::MakeMaker vs Module::Build vs Module::Install

  *  Possibly writing unit tests and/or documentation for
    HTTP::Client::Parallel — brain child of Adam Kennedy and both Marlon
    and I have hacked on.

  *  Javascript — I've been doing A LOT of application javascript (not
    dom/touchy feely widgets stuff) and have a lot of good practical
    advice on creating modular, maintainable code

The whole point of these meetings is to get together and share idea about
a common interest we all share.

With that said, if you've come to a meeting in the past and felt like you
didn't get anything out of it, I suggest you give it another shot.

I've just uploaded the redesigned [0]File::ShareDir, which should both
resolve the various problems with the original design, AND (hopefully) be
fully back-compatible with old previously-installed files.

Any testing people can do would be appreciated.

To install files into the new paths, please use the svn version of
[1]Module::Install from [2]http://svn.ali.as/.

In short, previously there was some confusion between module files and
distribution files, and had packlist-related problems in some areas.

The new install paths look something like
.../auto/share/dist/Distribution-Name/test_file.txt

It is today at 7:30 pm in Barquillo 11, Madrid.

Diego Kuperman is going to talk about Moose and I am going to talk about
advanced Perl sorting techniques and the Sort::Key modules.

Everybody is invited but the capacity is limited so get in touch with any
of the group members first if you decide to come!

The details are [0]here (in Spanish).
