Perl Weekly=20

https://perlweekly.com/archive/731.html



Hi there!

The Perl Mongers ( https://www.pm.org/ ) once had hundreds of active
groups. Now there are only 22 listed and even them are probably not very
active.

There are number of groups on Meetup mentioning Perl (
https://www.meetup.com/topics/perl/ ), however in reality many of those
don't actually have Perl-related content or an inactive.

On the Perl Weekly site we have a number of groups listed and a calendar of
events ( https://perlweekly.com/events ) based on the event.json
file in our repository ( https://github.com/szabgab/perlweekly ). I wish
more organizers used this calendar and the Perl Weekly to reach new
audiences.

So here is an idea. We need someone who has time, energy, and interest
organizing online Perl events. Each even could contain a
presentation and then some free chat. The event(s) could be organized under
various of these groups at times convenient for the local audience and the
speaker. I have some presentations I could give and I am sure others could
offer theirs. These presentation don't need to be the well-prepared and
well-rehearsed ones you would give at a conference, it could be more akin
to sharing your knowledge with some co-worker over a virtual tea. Contact
me if you'd like to give it a try!

Enjoy your week!

Announcing wxPerl 3.006
https://github.com/sciurius/wxPerl/releases/
=20
Major change in 3.006 is a vast overhaul of most of the code to eliminate
depending on wxWidgets 2.8 and 3.0 compatibility hacks. The code is much
cleaner now, and builds without problems with 3.2, 3.3.0 and 3.3.1 (at
this time latest wxWidgets release).

This makes wxPerl better prepared
for the future! Future releases of wxWidgets should no longer impose
substantial porting problems.

When building wxPerl, all tests should

Solutions are clean, efficient, and concise. The regex trick for "Last
Word" feels particularly Perl-ish, while the "Buddy Strings"
implementation is methodical and comprehensive.

=20 Hi there! =20 The Perl Mongers once had hundr= eds of active groups. Now there are only 22 listed and even them are probab= ly not very active. =20 There are number of >groups on Meetup mentioning Perl, however in reality many of those don= 't actually have Perl-related content or an inactive. =20 On the Perl Weekly site we have a number of groups listed and a href=3D"https://perlweekly.com/events">calendar of events based on the = event.json file in >our repository. I wish more organizers used this calendar and the Perl= Weekly to reach new audiences. =20 So here is an idea. We need someone who has time, energy, and inter= est organizing online Perl events. Each even could contain a present= ation and then some free chat. The event(s) could be organized under variou= s of these groups at times convenient for the local audience and the speake= r. I have some presentations I could give and I am sure others could offer= theirs. These presentation don't need to be the well-prepared and well-reh= earsed ones you would give at a conference, it could be more akin to sharin= g your knowledge with some co-worker over a virtual tea. Contact me if you'= d like to give it a try! =20 Enjoy your week! =20 Your editor: Gabor Szabo. mg/gabor_szabo.png" />
