Meeting Start Time: Tue, 11 Dec 2007 19:00:00 -0800

This December Multiple Portland programming users groups are going to combine meetings into on large meeting. This will be a socializing, festive atmosphere meant to allow the local group members to mingle and get to know their fellow scripters (compilers also welcome :).

Meet folks from the groups of: PHP, Python, Ruby, Postgres, Perl, etc....

Pizza and Beverage will be provided. Also there will be many Geek type events with Prizes.

Some of the events we are considering (subject to change due to group consensus)...

• I remember when, the BS game (any story of geekery, starting with "I remember when" or "I was there when" allowed, and then you call BS or not.
• Name That Language. Snippets from obscure and entertaining languages posted. Can you recognize an algorithm in whitespace if it's surrounded by poetry?
• 5 Minute Code Sprints: 5 minutes to solve a problem. Prove your language best, or shortest, or most obscure. Whatever you like.
• "I can name that programming language in 3 lines of code": Name that language Duels. Challenge your opponent that you can name a Programing language by seeing less lines of code than them.
• Best WTF snippet: Do your worst and be the best
