[northwestengland.pm] Fwd: [GeekUp] Functional Programming Night at GeekUp Liverpool May

[Hakim Cassimally]

It's not Perl-related, but why not come to Geekup's first ever
"Functional Programming Night"?

   http://lanyrd.com/2011/geekup-liverpool-may/

It'll mostly consist of 3 short talks on Haskell, Lisp, and Clojure:

   * Haskell in the Real World (Hakim @osfameron)
   * Implenting a Lisp interpreter in .Net (Simon Johnson)
   * Clojure: why you should be interested in a 50 year old language
(Tom Mortimer-Jones @morty_uk)

There will also be beer!

The talks are likely to be more "general interest" than assuming deep
knowledge of FP.

Cheers,
osf'

Just wanted to announce May's GeekUp properly. We'll be having a
Functional Programming Extravaganza with three (count em', 3!) talks
from Hakim Cassimally, Simon Johnson and Tom Mortimer-Jones.
Meeting in 3345 on Parr Street as ever, talks starting at 7pm but turn
up from 6:30 and we'll be chatting over beer in the bar.
Turn-out has been great for the recent events but we're always happy
