In the interest of not wasting your time with frivolous matters, I've decided not to forward the 
following to you.

Our illustrious founder [of Perl Mongers.org] has wikipedia issues. As you may know, his
preferred (and published) rendering of his name is 'brian d foy'.
There's even a style guide.

If you feel like it, you might forward those in your groups to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Brian_D._Foy and join the fight to
render him correctly on wikipedia.

thanks,

dha, unofficial sgt-at-arms

But you did forward it. And it is frivolous. Maybe the "not forward the
following" is a joke ... you know, a pun, nah, nah, not a pun, ...

Thanks!

Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2007 11:01:43 +0100
To: conferences at yapceurope.org


The bad news: The Conference has to be rescheduled slightly
-----------------------------------------------------------

The ESC Congress 2007 is even bigger than we thought. They expect 15.000
cardiologists, plus their spouses! Due to this, there is nearly not a single
bed available in Vienna for the night from Friday, 31st August to Saturday, 1st
September.

As we do not want to force you to leave on the last day of the conference, we
decided to 
  **reschedule YAPC::Europe to Tuesday, 28th to Thursday, 30th August.**

We are very sorry for this, and do hope that it does not cause any problems for
anybody who might have already booked his or her flights or hotel. If this
change does cause you some problems, please inform us, and we'll see what we
can do to help you.


The good news: Register or submit a talk until 31th March and win a book!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have two coffee-table books (one including a DVD) on Vienna to raffle off.
To enter the contest, all you need to do is to either register for the
conference and pay your ticket, or submit a talk proposal until 31th March.

-  Zentralfriedhof Vienna: The living Graveyard. Including DVD: Universum
   Documentary A documentary about the Zentralfriedhof, which is the second
   largest cemetery by area and largest by number of interred in Europe. In 
   German and English.

-  Wien. Tradition und Moderne. by Doris Simhofer This book is
   German only, but has lots of nice photos :-)

Winners will be announced on 3th April.

Subject: [ABQ-pm] Daylight Saving Time on Windows ActivePerl
Message-ID: <45F53404.32344.6324AE1@jcalkins.swcp.com>

If you're using the ActiveState distribution of Perl AND you've set the TZ environment variable 
(TZ=MST7MDT), your localtime() will report the wrong time. It's not Perl that needs to be fixed. Perl 
with TZ uses the Microsoft Visual C Runtime library (msvcrt.dll) to keep track of which years have 
which rules. If you haven't set TZ then Perl just uses what Windows gives it.

Here's the page at Activestate to start you through the fix process.

http://support.activestate.com/faq/activeperl-and-the-2007-d

At the end of the install process the installer asked if I wanted to reboot now or later. When I 
clicked "later" the computer shut down anyway, crashing a bunch of things on the way. I (now) 
recommend closing all applications before installing this update.

Why use TZ? The Date::Manip module uses it and you can get accurate time information for past years 
in localtime(), as opposed to using the Windows regional time setting.

From: Jesse Vincent <jesse at bestpractical.com>
Subject: Perl 6 Microgrants. Now accepting proposals.
Date: Wed, 21 Mar 2007 23:04:29 -0400
To: perl6-internals at perl.org, perl6-language at perl.org,
	perl6-compiler at perl.org, perl5-porters at perl.org

I'm pleased to announce the inaugural Perl 6 Microgrants program.  
Best Practical Solutions (my company) has donated USD5,000 to The  
Perl Foundation to help support Perl 6 Development.  Leon Brocard,  
representing The Perl Foundation's grants committee, will work with  
me to select proposals and evaluate project success.  We'll be making  
USD500 grants to worthy Perl 6 related efforts. We're hoping to fund  
a range of Perl 6-related projects over the life of the grant  
program.  Accepted grants might be for coding, documentation, testing  
or even writing articles about Perl 6. The program isn't tied to any  
one implementation of Perl 6 -- We're interested in seeing proposals  
related to Pugs, Perl 6 on Parrot, Perl 6 on Perl 5 or any other Perl  
6 implementation.  Generally, we're interested in seeing projects  
that can be completed in 4-6 calendar weeks.

Submitting a grant proposal
---------------------------

To submit a grant proposal, please email us at perl6- 
microgrants at perl.org with the following information:

* A two to three paragraph summary of the work you intend to do
* A quick bio - Who are you? Is there opensource work you've done  
that we should have a look at?
* A brief description of what "success" will mean for your project -  
How will we know you're done?
* Where (if anywhere) you've discussed your project in the past
* Where you'll be blogging about your progress. (Twice-weekly blog  
posts are a requirement for getting your grant money)

We'll be accepting proposals on a rolling schedule. We expect to pay  
out these first 10 grants over the course of the summer. Depending on  
how things go, we'll then either find more money for more grant  
programs or we'll wind up the program and move on to other endeavors.

We're really excited to get rolling. Submit your proposals early and  
often. Don't let somebody else beat you to the punch ;)

Best,

Jesse
