clkao pinged me to ask where was good for holidaying in le Cinque Terre. After giving some tourist advice, I had a cunning plan, and after some discussion with bepi, the leader of Pisa.pm, he's going to be guest of honour at the inaugural technical meet on 1st December. And he's also kindly agreed to come to Florence on the morning of the 2nd to talk to $work, before flying off into the sunset. clkao++ for his generosity in presenting svk while off duty, and Pisa.pm++ for the speed at which they organized this!
The moral of this story may be not to get in touch with me if you're looking to have a relaxing time in Italy :-) Er, actually, the moral is that perl.it really seems to be getting off the ground, with projects like POD2IT and the Pisa.pm tech meet, and so if you're coming to Italy, check it out!
I'll update this post with a link to the official announcement from Pisa.pm when it comes through.
