[PLUG] June talk on Erlang?


PLUGgers,

How do people feel about me giving an intro talk on Erlang in June? I see
we have no speaker and I'm hitting it somewhat hard right now so it will
be fresh in my mind by then. 

For those of you who don't know what Erlang is, its a 20 year old 
dynamically-typed, functional language with some neat features like
pattern matching, hot code update and message-passing concurrency. Its
becoming something of a hot item in the geek circles as the needs of the
new multicore/multinode future are becoming clear to almost all and the
problems with shared memory and STM concurrency models are coming to
light. More here:

Post +/-1 to the list if you're interested. Thanks :)

P.S. I promise to use Keynote this time, not S5 :-P
