Tutor: Dave Cross is the owner of Magnum Solutions Ltd, an Open Source
consultancy company based in London. In 1998 he started london.pm which has
grown to be one of the largest Perl Mongers groups in the world. He nominally
led the group until September 2001. Between August 2002 and June 2006 he was
the Perl Mongers User Groups Co-ordinator for the Perl Foundation.

Dave is a regular speaker at Perl and Open Source conferences and is often
invited to present tutorials alongside the main conference. He is the author
of "Data Munging with Perl" (Manning, 2001) and a co-author of "Perl Template
Toolkit" (O'Reilly, 2003). Dave lives in SW London. The rumours about gold-
plated cats were never true.
