We're fortunate enough to have another special guest night this month, with Andy Robinson coming along to talk about OpenStreetMap, the open mapping intiative that is growing at a phenonmenal rate. Following will be JJ, who is going to give us a run down of the recent Microsoft Scripting Games, where a number of Perl programmers, including himself, submitted entries for Perl.
As per usual we'll be at The Victoria. The pub is on the corner of John Bright Street and Beak Street, between the old entrance to the Alexandra Theatre and the backstage entrance. If in doubt, the main entrance to the Theatre is on the inner ring road, near the Pagoda roundabout. The pub is on the road immediately behind the main entrance. See the map link on the website if you're stuck.
As always entry is free, with no knowledge of Perl required. We'd be delighted to have you along, so feel free to invite family, friends and colleagues ;)
We'll be in the venue from about 6.30pm, and have booked The Boardroom for the night. Order food as you get there, and we'll aim to begin talks at about 8pm. I expect talks to finish about 9.30pm, with plenty of time for discussion and planning for meetups over the weekend in London.
