speaker: Ian Dees + Joshua Keroes
## Ian...
➜ will cover what it's like for n00bs learning how to create a new Perl module, including:
* Where rookies look for "Getting Started" information
* Which tools we can readily find for the job
* What kinds of questions we have about namespaces
What Ian would like to do to help:
* Listen to your answers
* Format them into some kind of guide (or supplement an existing one)
* Hand it to a Perl expert to post in the right place
* Commit to checking in a couple of times a year to keep the information current
You will be vastly enlightened, or horrified.
## Joshua...
➜ will continue down the Dist::Zilla path of Automated Enlightenment and speak on Pod::Weaver.
In July, Duke Leto gave Portland an introduction to Dist::Zilla, demonstrating how it can help write, package, test, and release your modules; automating the boring stuff like figuring out prerequisites, automatically inserting and updating $VERSION's, getting rid of all those meta files and generating them automatically; all good ways to focus on the important stuff: the code.
This month, Joshua will show how Pod::Weaver can help automate the boring parts of writing documentation so you can avoid getting bogged down by boilerplate and focus on the important stuff there: the docs.
As always, the meeting will be followed by social hour at the Lucky Lab.
