I don't mind moving technical stuff to next month, and going out for a beer with Faber. Ted, Tom, would you be interested in delaying for next time? Faber, still interested in swinging by for just a beer and sandwich at the Gute?

That's not awesome, but probably not a showstopped. I'd bet it'll get fixed in the next year or two, too. Android looks great, but until I can *buy one* I don't see how it's much of an alternative. -- rjbs From jkeen at verizon.net Sat Mar 8 07:12:52 2008 From: jkeen at verizon.net (James E Keenan) Date: Sat, 08 Mar 2008 10:12:52 -0500 Subject: [ABE.pm] YAPC::NA: It's earlier this year Message-ID: <9988312B-D32E-4175-8DE5-0EAF38FF9D0E@verizon.net> YAPC::NA is taking place in Chicago on Monday-Wednesday, June 16-18. http://conferences.mongueurs.net/yn2008/index.html Note that this is earlier in June than has been the case for the past three years. From 2005 to 2007, the conference took place at the start of the week immediately preceding holiday weekends in both Canada and the U.S. But this year it moves back to the middle of June as was the case up through 2004. This means that the deadline for submission of talks is earlier this year as well. In fact, the deadline is next Saturday, March 15. So if you've been pondering making a presentation at YAPC, you need to submit a proposal (at least in outline) by that date: http:// conferences.mongueurs.net/yn2008/newtalk.
