Manifesto for London.pm election
As requested, here is a brief statement of my intentions should I be elected leader... 1) Carry on as we are mostly, lots of excellent people already do lots of the organising 2) I won't make every social (not even sure about this week now), but I'll try make more than I do at the moment 3) Be open to other people wanting to organsie other stuff 4) I already maintain the website (with others) so I'd carry on with that 5) Will answer emails / act as point of contact for London.pm I was going to say 'may the best person win' - but that's not really appropriate :) Leo
[ANNOUNCE] London Perl M[ou]ngers October Social, 2010-10-07, The Gunmakers Arms, Clerkenwell
The London Perl Mongers October Social will be this Thursday 7 October at The Gunmakers Arms in Clerkenwell, where the lovely landlord Jeff will have foamy ales, clear and cloudy ciders, fizzy lagers, tasty foods and tables reserved in the rear room. See you there! The Gunmakers Arms 13 Eyre Street Hill London EC1R 5ET http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?Gunmakers,_EC1R_5ET Beer and food selection updated daily on https://twitter.com/thegunmakers Standard blurb: Social meets are a chance for the various members of the group to meet up face to face and chat with each other about things - both Perl and (mostly) non-Perl - and newcomers are more than welcome. The monthly meets tend to be bigger than the other ad hoc meetings that take place at other times, and we make sure that they're in easy to get to locations and the pub serves food (meaning that people can eat in the bar if they want to). They normally start around 6.30pm (or whenever people get there after work) and a group tends to be left come closing time. If you're a newcomer or other first timer (even if you've been lurking on the mailing list or on IRC) then please seek Léon (the guy in orange with a stuffed camel) out - we have a tradition that the leader of this motley crew buys the new people a drink and introduces them to people. -- ilmari "A disappointingly low fraction of the human race is, at any given time, on fire." - Stig Sandbeck Mathisen

Leadership Election: Nominations
Nominations for the leadership election closed at midnight. I have received the following valid nominations. * Leo Lapworth * Amelia the stuffed camel * Egbert the BBC stuffed camel It might be interesting if the candidates were to post a brief statement of their plans for the group. As Leon said in his original email, the election will open in two weeks time (on 18th October). I will send more details of the voting procedure nearer to that date.
