Welcome to The Flemish Perl Mongers
What is Vlaanderen.pm?
We are a group of professionals and hobbyists with a passion for getting things done in & on time on & between different software applications, operating systems and hardware platforms.
Consequently we all got in touch with Perl, the computer's lingua franca, and like to share about this with others.
Vlaanderen.pm got started in 2004.
Vlaanderen.pm Meetings
We have regular "family-life-friendly" meetings in Mechelen each 3rd Wednesday of the month. These consist of a social and technical meeting.
By splitting up the evening in two parts and not ending it too late, we try to make it flexible enough for everyone to plan this into their family life.
Also the next meeting date and place can be and has already been changed, upon democratic agreement when requested in time on the mailing list.
Social Meeting
- From 18.45 till about 20.00 we meet in a cosy restaurant or a nice tavern and enjoy a good meal and the occasional glass of beer.
Technical Meeting
- From 20.00 till about 22.00 enjoying tech stuff while having a tea | beer |soft drink | coffee and wifi & beamer at disposition.
