From xoa
the new group
that will be more than just Perl
could be Python or Ruby or Erlang or whatever
Dynamic Language Extravaganza 
How about some sort of... UNIversal FORUM... hm... 
what do we call it?
I also like the idea of an open source emphasis.
the open source dynamic language group
but I don't want it just chicago.
Ideally it'd be like pm
so it could be chicago.whatever.org
with more universal appeal. I like.
OSLUG - Open Source Language User Group
I'd really like to not have the "UG"
the "User Group"
I've NEVER liked the word "User Group"
LUG implies Linux, whether or not it is.
Toastmasters isn't the Public Speakers User Group
Devcouncil?
Is it just dev?
I guess I"m OK with it being dev
and excluding the sysadminnnes.
I don't want it to be "programmers"
Perl, Python, Ruby
Erlang
Haskell
Automated testing
Web 2.0
testing++
AJAX, JS
It's almost "Modern Programming"
Java, for that matter
21st century programming
Agile
I don't want it to be advocacy
We're not advocating anything
Like TPF is
discussing use of, development in, etc., correct?
best practices
never mind modern, forward.
Forward Development
Forfora?
Future Dev
virutalization
I also am going to put in the charter something about the human connections.
Actually, that's a key topic.
Human connections.
But respect for all is a key part of the reason this group exists.
And the idea is respect for the platforms as well. But human++
Nothing in TPF is modern.
Respect for the human element is key
NOTHING.
Mailman.
The naming
RT
The whole "RT is slow" is just another example.
