The Perl College is a creative merger of job training and job fairs. Here are its primary goals: * Provide free top quality training to qualified junior level Perl developers * Improve their Perl skills to the intermediate level * Match the new graduates with Perl jobs in the hiring companies * http://perlhunter.com/college.html The Perl College was created to address these issues in recruiting Perl coders: * A shortage of intermediate level Perl developers * A surplus of junior level Perl developers * Some are not developing Perl full time * Many are looking for a career developing Perl but can't get needed training and experience * Companies lacking the resources to train Perl developers We are currently seeking both sponsors and students for this unique education/recruitment opportunity. Hiring Sponsors: Thirty great applicants - cheap! Imagine how much it would cost in both time and money to find and train a qualified applicant for your Perl jobs. The Perl College dramatically improves the efficiency of this process by pre-screening and accepting only the most motivated students. Then we take it one step further. We take those already highly motivated students and train them up to a solid intermediate level of Perl skills. Efficiency, cost effectiveness and quality results - what could be better for your Perl recruitment needs? Student Candidates: Put yourself ahead of the competition. If selected you will have a week of free training from Damian Conway (valued at $3000). Plus you will exposed to employers who are actively seeking intermediate level Perl developers. Competition to get in will be fierce so put your best foot forward. Don't wait to apply as we will take only the thirty most qualified students.

Please forward this to your local PM groups. TPF needs volunteers to make summer of code happen this year. It sounds like the administrators got stretched too thin in 2005 and 2006, and we really didn't have ourselves together in 2007. So, I'm proposing a departmental structure under a TPF umbrella, which will localize the cat-herding effects within various large projects (so far, parrot and Catalyst appear to be on board with this.) I would like to demonstrate that we have our act together this year, so we need to get a solid pool of administrative volunteers and mentors together before the 8th. Administrative needs: (Contact ewilhelm на cpan.org or join #soc on irc.perl.org.) * backup administrator (reduce the bus number) * Department heads for p5p, "modules", etc * Suggestions about department structure Mentors and project ideas needed: We need to get these pages populated before March 8th or it is quite likely to be a no-go. Potential mentors, please add yourselves and your project ideas here: http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008_mentors http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008_projects If you hate wikis as much as I do, please visit this handy form and I will batch the wiki edits on your behalf. http://scratchcomputing.com/loveperlhatewiki.html Thanks, Eric -- We who cut mere stones must always be envisioning cathedrals. --Quarry worker's creed --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com --------------------------------------------------- -- Request pm.org Technical Support via support на pm.org pm_groups mailing list pm_groups на pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/pm_groups From dionys на gmail.com Tue Mar 18 01:44:32 2008 From: dionys на gmail.com (Denis Ibaev) Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2008 11:44:32 +0300 Subject: [Kazan.pm] Fwd: [pm_groups] Summer of Perl -- call for student proposals Message-ID: <47DF80F0.1020905@gmail.com> -------- Исходное сообщение -------- Тема: [pm_groups] Summer of Perl -- call for student proposals Дата: Tue, 18 Mar 2008 00:55:24 -0700 От: Eric Wilhelm Кому: PM Groups Hi all, Please forward this to your groups. (Also feel free to break into a discussion as to whether or how students are involved in the perl community, what we can do to connect with more universities and etc.) The Perl Foundation is participating in Google's 2008 Summer of Code(tm) and we have a lot of capable, willing mentors looking forward to working with some talented, driven students. So, we would like you to help find those students (and quickly -- the students must apply before March 24th.) This is a rare opportunity for students to get a chance to get a paid summer of hacking on exciting projects like Parrot, Perl 6, Moose, Jifty, SVK, Catalyst, or their very own Perl modules or applications. It also brings new talent into the community and gives the student a hefty "real world" experience with a knowledgable mentor. Further, employers love to see this sort of demonstration of teamwork, handling deadlines, communication skills, resourcefulness and etc. We're looking for promising students who are interested in open source (or maybe you know someone who *should* be interested in open source.) Knowledge of Perl is optional if the project is Parrot-related. The student doesn't need to be an expert in the problem domain (after all, learning is part of the process), but should bring a big pile of creativity, problem-solving skills, and determination. Students should review the page of suggested projects, but are encouraged to bring their own proposals (those are often the best.) The most important first step is getting in touch with the community and discussing their project idea with potential mentors. http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008_projects Additional information and links can be found here. http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008 Google has posted some flyers if you happen to have a university bulletin board or hallway handy: http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code/wiki/GsocFlyers Additional info: http://code.google.com/soc/2008/ http://code.google.com/soc/2008/faqs.html (Note that google has particular requirements to do with the fact that they are paying the students. The student must be able to show their eligibility regarding enrollment and employability.) Remember, the Perl community draws talent from many fields, so if you came to Perl from a non-computer-science major and still have contacts in that department from your university, it is probably worth mentioning to them.

Полный список организаций: http://code.google.com/soc/2008/ Для тех, кто не в курсе. Подавали заявки две perl организации TPF и EPO(http://www.enlightenedperl.org/). Последняя была организована буквально недавно от части для подачи заявки. Прошёл только фонд. Пока нет подробностей, но, на сколько я знаю, через TPF будут продвигаться все проекты так или иначе касающиеся Perl. Мне кажется, что наступило самое время немного пофлудить на perl related сайтах. Повесить объявления в институтах и общежитиях, если у вас остались контакты или вы учитесь. 31 Марта заканчивается срок подачи заявок студентами, а это очень скоро. Я написал сюда, напишу где-то еще, но все не покроешь. Не поленитесь написать на форуме или в дневнике. Обсудить подробности с perl менторами студенты могут на канале #soc-help сервера irc.perl.org Ссылки: * TPF на сайте GSoC2008: http://code.google.com/soc/2008/perl/about.html - страничка, где появятся проекты со временем. * Perl and 2008 Google Summer of Code: http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008 - описание разделов, пилотов и дублирующих пилотов. * http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008_projects - список идей и доп. информация. * http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008_proposal_template - шаблон подачи заявок для студентов -- Best regards, Ruslan. -- Moscow.pm mailing list moscow-pm на pm.org | http://moscow.pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/moscow-pm From dionys на gmail.com Thu Mar 27 15:40:00 2008 From: dionys на gmail.com (Denis Ibaev) Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2008 01:40:00 +0300 Subject: [Kazan.pm] Fwd: [pm_groups] Summer of Code Students -- Last call Message-ID: <47EC2240.9080501@gmail.com> -------- Исходное сообщение -------- Тема: [pm_groups] Summer of Code Students -- Last call Дата: Thu, 27 Mar 2008 10:53:26 -0700 От: Eric Wilhelm Кому: PM Groups Hi all, Please forward to your local groups. Also, a poll: have you or your fellow mongers done anything (bonus points for interesting or creative) to get the word out? --- If you are a student or know a student who could be creating some awesome code with Perl or Parrot this summer, you need to act NOW. The application deadline is Monday, but if you haven't gone through a couple rounds of feedback by then you probably won't succeed. Applications sent at the last minute are unlikely to be accepted. If you know some students or professors, you should contact them about this today (not tomorrow.) http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc2008_projects Thanks, Eric -- Request pm.org Technical Support via support на pm.org pm_groups mailing list pm_groups на pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/pm_groups
