Hi all!

This is a last-days reminder that we will have Gabor's talk about Perl 6 next 
Sunday on 22-March-2009. More information can be found in the quoted message 
below. Attending the meeting is free and no registration is needed.

Gabor is going to give the second part of this presentation two weeks from 
then.
