Ideas Raised at the May 2006 Israel.PM Meeting
During the May 2006 Israel.PM meeting, we brainstormed to see what other topics can interest people in future meetings. The original paper on which the ideas were noted was misplaced, but we'll try to recall them here. We came up with the following ideas:
- The Vim Editor for Beginners - The material for the presentation is already prepared.
- Data Visualisation using Perl - charts, graphs, etc.
- One of the attendees (I think it was an F5 worker) wanted to talk about a mistake he did in his workplace project in which he wrote unit tests, and it turned out to be a bad idea.
- Shlomo Yona - Iterators in Perl
- Parsers - can Shlomo Yona give it?
- Implementation.
- Use.
- Useful Modules in Perl or "Perl in Everyday Use".
- Foreign Languages
- LISP
- Ruby/Smalltalk
- J
- Intro to Perl 6 - Ran Eilam/ Gaal Yahas
Suggestions by Uri Bruck
Play it Again, Perl.
Putting some order into the piles of MIDI files, finding what you need and making sense of it all. While I do not promise to sing during the lecture I also do not promise not to.
Length: 60 min.
From Text-Based to DataBase
Migrating text based data to a mysql database. This partly a perl/mysql tutorial, and partly about migrating a database on a live system - the emphasis can go either way.
Length: 60 min.
Latin Perl
A discussion of the Lingua::Romana::Perligata module, perl as a language, and why I find it interesting. I'm still looking for a proper title for this one.
Length: 60 min.
Other
Shlomi Fish will contact Ori Peleg (we think that's his name) and get him to do a testing class, maybe an evolved rerun of his fun OSDC talk
Hey, you thought the talk was fun? Cool! :) (Ori Peleg)
