Hi everyone...

There have been some recent developments on the YAPC::NA front,
and it has been suggested to us that a reminder might be helpful
to some people, so here's a quick summary of the event.

Summary
-------

    YAPC::NA 2005 (Yet Another Perl Conference, North America)
    in Toronto, Canada, Monday - Wednesday 27 - 29, June 2005

    Home page:  http://yapc.org/America/

    Conference Location:  http://89chestnut.com/
                          A facility of the University of Toronto

Accommodations
--------------
Normally registration information would come first, but
accommodations are the bottleneck -- our main group reservation
(at the conference hotel) expires at the end of the week, and as
the conference approaches it will be extremely difficult to find
a hotel anywhere in the city.

Info on how to book at:

    http://yapc.org/America/accommodations-2005.shtml


Registration
------------

Register now! :-)  We are on track to break attendance records
at YAPC::NA this year, and we could even sell out before the
conference starts.  The price for the full 3 days is USD$85.
We keep it insanely low through many generous sponsorships
and the all-volunteer organizational and speaking crews.

Registration info: http://yapc.org/America/register-2005.shtml

Conference Speaking Schedule
----------------------------

We've got an excellent selection of talks and speakers for Perl
programmers of all levels, beginner through expert.  We are
fortunate enough to have presentations coming from some of the
most recognizable names in Perl programming today, including
Larry Wall, Chip Salzenberg, Dan Sugalski, Autrijus Tang and
brian d foy.

Lightning Talks

attendees, are a YAPC tradition.  If you're interested please

In case anyone missed the use Perl article, Josh McAdams
now has a podcast about Perl.  He talks about Perl news,
does interviews, and covers topics of both beginning and
advanced difficulty.  If you're into podcasts on technical
topics, you might want to give it a shot.

an objective source.
