"Perl 6 will be the last version of perl." Or, according to one RFC, the version number will asymptotically approach pi*2. Simon Cozens, author of the new Wrox book 'Beginning Perl', will talk about the Perl 6 project. Sunday 5th November: Comlab, 6.30pm. *No picnic* (The SGI talk has been postponed. Website yet to be updated.) Alasdair -- agk@oxlug.org +44 7733 310028
