After a talk with Orna, I've decided to delay the Lightning Talks by four
weeks, to hold a different lecture at 19 June 2005 (probably Eddie's), and on
the date in between hold a communal hacking session. What we do is meet,
connect to a Linux machine, and alternate between adding comments to code, or
writing automated tests for it. When we're done we send the patches to the
maintainer. We should probably add comments to an open-source codebase that
the person is familiar with. Tests can be written to various Perl modules on
CPAN. (CGI.pm comes to mind).
