Deutscher Perl-Workshop // 2. Call for Papers Message-ID: <20071008_100255_073419.mailinglisten@renee-baecker.de> Hallo Perlmongers, der Call for Papers für den 10. Deutschen Perl-Workshop läuft schon seit ein paar Wochen. Es wäre schön, wenn sich noch ein paar Vortragsvorschläge beim Orga-Team eingehen würdem. Vortragsvorschläge können noch bis 29.10.2007 über die Webseite des Perl-Workshops [1] eingereicht werden. Ihr braucht da noch keinen kompletten Vortrag einreichen sondern "nur" einen Abstract, der beschreibt über was der Vortrag gehen soll. Der ausführliche "Call for Papers" ist auch im Internet zu finden [2]. Der 10. Deutsche Perl-Workshop findet vom 13.-15. Februar 2008 am Regionalen Rechenzentrum in Erlangen statt. Der Workshop steht und fällt mit den Vorträgen! Das Orga-Team hat eine (unverbindliche) Liste mit Themenvorschlägen bereitgestellt: * Aktuelle Web-Frameworks: Catalyst, Jifty, AxKit2, ... * Objektorientierung: Moose, Moose::Autobox, ... * Datenbankabstraktion: DBIx::Class * SPAM-Abwehr/Erkennung * Unicode * Perl-IO * Perl 6 * Perl6-in-Perl5-Integration und vice versa * "wirklich große" Perl-Systeme * Releasemanagement * Vergleich von "gleichen" Softwaresystemen (Template-Engines, Wikis, XML-Engines, ...) * Verträglichkeit mit anderen Systemen * (plattformübergreifende) GUI-Programmierung * Erfahrungsberichte zum Einsatz von Perl (z.B. Inbetriebnahme grösserer Perl-Systeme (WebGUI, ...)) * Grundlagen-Tutorials zu allen Perl-Themen (XML, Web, DBI, ...) Wenn euer "Lieblingsthema" nicht dabei ist, könnt ihr trotzdem einen Vortrag einreichen. Diese Liste ist ja nicht vollständig...
