I switched to YAPC (<a href="http://conferences.mongueurs.net/yn2010/">http://conferences.mongueurs.net/yn2010/</a>) because it's cheaper, less formal, and all the Perl content seems to be the same. But OSCON itself has lots on non-Perl content. </div><div><br></div><div>j</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><br><div><br><div>Begin forwarded message:</div><blockquote type="cite"><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1);"><b>From: </b></span><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium;">Marsee Henon <<a href="mailto:marsee@oreilly.com">marsee@oreilly.com</a>><br></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1);"><b>Date: </b></span><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium;">April 1, 2010 6:00:44 PM CDT<br></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1);"><b>To: </b></span><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium;"><a href="mailto:jay@jays.net">jay@jays.net</a><br></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium; color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 1);"><b>Subject: </b></span><span style="font-family:'Helvetica'; font-size:medium;"><b>UG News: Discount for O'Reilly Open Source Convention (OSCON)</b><br></span></div><br>
