Northwest PM Meet – Manchester
I completely forgot to blog about the Northwest PM meet last week. Perhaps the Perl scene in Manchester isn’t as lacking as we initially thought. Although there were only a few of us actually from Manchester.
Three interesting talks were given:
- Object oriented database design in PostgreSQL (Matt S Trout)
- Converting 16k user mailboxes from MBOX to MDIR++ (Ian Norton)
- Functional Pe(a)rls v3 (Osfameron)
All the talks were fairly good and I’d recommend any other Perl devs (or even potential ones) show their faces. We’re friendlier than we look… honest 
The next meet is a social, again in Manchester.

Speaking as co-leader I can say I was glad to see new faces at the meeting and hope to see more at the social
Hope you don’t mind but here is a link to Matt S. Trout’s talk: http://www.shadowcat.co.uk/archive/conference-video/nwepm/postgres/ – I will leave links to the others once they are online (which should be this week). Also please note that Paul Tipper co-presented the 16k user mailboxes – I called him Peter Somethingoranother on the night 
Cheers Mark! I couldn’t for the life of me remember Paul’s Name, hence not being included.
