[clug] Calling all Canberra Perl enthusiasts

[Andrew Pollock]

Hi,

If you program in Perl, or have a passing interest in Perl, please consider
helping revitalise the Canberra chapter of Perl Mongers.

The group is currently languishing somewhat, and in danger of formally
ceasing to exist, mainly due to apathy.

When I was in Canberra, I helped organise a couple of dinner meetings for
when Paul and Jacinta from Perl Training Australia were in town, and the
meetings were quite good.

What we really need to do is get someone to step up and volunteer to be a
nominal "leader" for the chapter. That leadership need only be poking the
list every now and then and trying to organise the occasional meeting. I
think there is room to overlap to a degree with CLUG's PSIG. You could
perhaps just devote one PSIG meeting a quarter to Perl, and call it Perl
Mongers.

So if you're into Perl, and would like to help keep the chapter going,
please at least subscribe to the Canberra.pm mailing list and introduce
yourself.
