[yapc] Intro to Moose Training at YAPC::NA

[chris fedde]

If you're looking for testimonials...

I thought Dave's class was outstanding.  Well prepared and highly
valuable content.  I'm a middling advanced Perl programmer from the
sysadmin tribe.  Over the decades I've been in dozens of professional
training opportunities.  This course was one of the best organized
I've had the opportunity to take.
