I am doing a 45-60min presentation on setting up MySQL + DBD::mysql at<br>Grand Rapids Perl Mongers on the last Friday of July. We meet at<br>the Priority Health Conference Center on the corner of Leonard and<br>East Beltline. All GRLUG people are welcome, of course. No charge
<br>and lunch is provided (if you RSVP).<br><br>I'll probably use a fresh server install of Ubuntu and MySQL 5.0 but<br>do DBD::mysql straight off CPAN for demonstration purposes.<br><br><a href="http://grand-rapids.pm.org/">
