Since we're recently talking about debugging, I just found this. It claims
to do Perl. I haven't tried it though :)

Third North American YAPC: First Call for Participation
Yet Another Society
calls for your participation in
YAPC 2001
the Third North American
Yet Another Perl Conference
http://yapc.org/America/
McGill University,
Montreal, Quebec
Wednesday through Friday
June 13-15, 2001
YAPC is a place for people to meet and talk about Perl -- where people
who've done interesting things, people who are working on the language
itself, people who are using it daily, and people who are looking to
learn about it are all within arm's reach. Some of the great authors
and coders in the field will be on hand to discuss their work, as well
as the nature and direction of Perl itself.
Please join us for three days of listening and talking about Perl in
Montreal.
* Conference registration will be available by Feb. 1, 2001 at
http://na-register.yapc.org/
* Dorm rooms will be available at the University (rates TBA); the dorm
request information will be on the website and registration form.
Registration Cost: CAD$125 (about USD$85)
* We are looking for sponsors. Please contact Kevin Lenzo
(lenzo@yapc.org) for information about how you can help support the
Yet Another society and YAPC. Much of the necessary funding for YAPC
comes from the generous donations of our sponsors.
* Submitted papers:
Submission Deadline: May 1, 2001
All topics are welcome. Here is a short list of subjects that might
be presented:
XML, CGI/Web, Interprocess Communication, GUIs (GTk, Tk), Natural
Language Processing, Interactive Perl, Agents, Perl as Glue,
Object-Oriented Perl, Scientific Applications, Guts, Internals,
JAPHs, Perl Poetry, System Administration, DBI/DBD, Non-UNIX Perl,
Security, Peer-to-Peer Communication, Your Favourite Topic.
Please submit your abstracts to . Authors are
requested to limit their abstracts to one or two paragraphs for
Lightning Talks, and to 300 words for other talks.
This year we will accept a number of types of talks:
* Lightning: 5 minutes
The lightning talks were instigated by Mark-Jason Dominus last
year in Pittsburgh, and were replicated with great success at
the European YAPC in London.
Participants speak for no more than five minutes, with the use
of conventional transparencies. Any use of data projector, etc,
is discouraged, but allowed as long as the five minute time limit
is maintained (set-up will be done as the clock ticks). The talk
ends at the five-minute mark, regardless of whether or not the
speaker has finished.
Any topic is allowed, and some have been fantastically humourous.
Lightning talks are an excellent forum for first-time speakers.
* Standard: 20 minutes
A 'standard' talk is the preferred format. This is enough time
to start a topic, introduce it with some pithy slides, and open
up to later conversation.
* Long and Extra-Long: 45 minutes, 90 minutes
Long talks are reserved for experienced speakers covering large
topics. If you have an in-depth topic you would like to present
in some detail, perhaps with considerable discussion, a Long or
Extra-Long talk may be the format of choice.
* Tutorial: 3 hours + break (possibly in two sets)
Half-day (or possibly full-day) tutorials.
Please submit your abstracts to !

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hello!
I hope everyone had a nice holiday break, and you're refreshed for another
year of Perl Mongering! :)
In December, we had a nice Holiday dinner at Empire Brewing Company. Quite
a few people showed up, and a good time was had by all. Great food and
great beer.
Well, it's time once again for another meeting. This Wednesday, January
17, we will be having a meeting at the UofR campus, at 8:00pm, in the
usual place. Directions can be found on the web site.
This months topic will be "Perl & SSL", by Tony Whyte. This will be very
useful for you to learn about some security issues, and especially for any
of you web programmers out there.
Looking forward to seeing you all.

Hello, perl.com subscribers.
* Perl News
Quite a few interesting things have happened in the past two weeks.
First, the venue and Call for Patricipation have been announced for
YAPC 2001, which will be held in Montreal this year. See
http://www.yapc.org/America/ for complete details and breaking news.
Second, in case you hadn't seen it yet, Damian Conway has started
the Conway Channel, a web site which will report on his year of
working on Perl. As you may recall, Damian received a grant from
Yet Another Society to take a year off from teaching and do nothing
but write Perl modules and travel around and give talks. (If you
contributed, thank you again, and note that YAS recently received
501(3)(c) status, so your contribution may be tax-deductible.)
The Conway Channel is available at:
http://yetanother.org/damian/
Finally, I got the following message from Jon Orwant, editor of the
Perl Journal:
January 2, 2001
Some folks have been asking me about the status of The Perl
Journal #20, and prospective authors have been asking me
about deadlines for future issues. The answers: TPJ #20 is
in press and ready to print, but EarthWeb (the owner of TPJ)
has told the printer to stop the presses until further
notice. I am currently responding to proposals sent to me
with approximately "I don't know if there's going to be
another issue, but when I do I'll respond to your proposal."
Since the future of the magazine is in doubt, I can't in
good conscience greenlight proposals; I will not encourage
an author to spend weeks writing an article when I know
that it might never be printed. So I've told people who've
asked what I know about the current situation: while
EarthWeb has sold many of its properties to internet.com so
that it can focus on "career services", it has not sold TPJ.
However, EarthWeb has also made it clear that they don't
want to publish TPJ any more.
This story has started to leak out to the Perl community and
has already mutated a bit in not-quite-correct directions,
so I wanted to write this note to set the record straight.
Or as straight as I can, given what little I know about
EarthWeb's decisions.
While TPJ's future is very much up in the air, people
shouldn't take this as any indicator about Perl itself.
TPJ was doing just fine back when I ran it, there's no
shortage of content out there, and the magazine could easily
go bimonthly and then monthly -- indeed, when EarthWeb
acquired TPJ I had thought that was the plan. I still enjoy
the editing, the authors enjoy the writing, and the
designers enjoy the designing. What happens now is up to
EarthWeb. And no, I'm not suggesting that people bombard
them with email. Heck, they just laid off 100 people, so
I'm not even sure who to bombard. Eventually there will be
some resolution, and when there is I'll write again to let
everyone know.
As of December 27th, this matter is now in the courts, and
so I have to adopt the "just the facts" tone of this letter
without portraying my opinions. Someday I'll be able to
talk more about what is happening in these strange days;
until then, you'll have to conjure up your own adjectives on
my behalf.
Cheers,
Jon Orwant

Subject: [roch-pm] [Fwd: O'Reilly Releases "Designing Web Audio"]
Message-ID: <3A676809.8020502@directedge.com>
WEB AUDIO: THE NEXT WEB FRONTIER
"In 1996, my brother yelled out the studio window and said 'Hey, you
gotta come check this out!' I ran up the stairs and got my first earful
of RealAudio streaming over the web," says Josh Beggs, coauthor of the
newest O'Reilly release, "Designing Web Audio." "As artists and
producers we knew it was going to be revolutionary. Here we were in
start-up mode doing business on a shoestring dreaming about how we were
going to pay for CD's and packaging to publish our music... and even
more daunting find an audience... then kaboom... streaming audio over
the Internet... It was like we had just been handed the keys to a
global satellite broadcasting center. It was an epiphany moment."
Beggs' book, "Designing Web Audio" (O'Reilly, $34.95), explains how
digital audio is encoded from microphone to hard disk; how sound is
processed using compression and equalization; and how to turn audio
source material into a great soundtrack using loops and ambient
soundscapes. "Designing Web Audio" demystifies its subject with
informative step-by-step techniques for encoding, compression, and
streaming audio over the Web.
"I especially wanted to make sure the new techno tribe of digerati and
programmer heads had the benefit of understanding the connection
between sound and music and human interaction with technology and
emotions," says Beggs. "Audio is such a compelling part of our lives
and of how we define ourselves as humans belonging to a specific
culture. Specifically, audio plays a huge role in making media more
real and lifelike, especially our movie watching experience. Someday
soon audio will enjoy a similar role on the web."
The easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions on using the leading
audio formats will make "Designing Web Audio" an invaluable resource
for Web developers and individuals who want to stream their own music
over the Web. "'Designing Web Audio' looks to the future when audio
becomes a more integral part of the web not just a file format to be
stored on a server and downloaded," explains Beggs. "Our book is
written for the next era when surfing the web becomes much more like
watching a movie. 'Designing Web Audio' is the only book written for
the upcoming web golden age of rich media content."
"Designing Web Audio" is the most complete Internet audio guide on the
market. It's loaded with informative real-world case studies and
interviews with some of the world's leading audio and web producers. It
using the most popular web audio formats. This book also includes a
wealth of basic digital audio and sound wave theory, practical tips and
techniques for recording and editing audio for the Web, and an
invaluable buyer's guide to building an effective sound studio.
