The nice chaps at NorthWestEngland PerlMongers have organized a technical meeting on 5th May, at the Manchester Digital Development Agency.

I’ll be doing a 3rd version of my Functional Pe(a)rls talk, about Haskell-inspired craziness in Pure Perl. And Matt Trout and Ian Norton will be talking about OO Database design, and Maildir migration, so there’s something for everyone.

Please come and say hello! Perl meetups are quite informal and friendly, and we’ll be meeting up for drinks at the Salisbury Pub afterwards (Perl talk strictly optional. Come for the beer, or to tell us how much you prefer C#, or that you’d rather be at PHPNW just down the road… d’oh!)
