We are working hard to add more days before and after these dates, and will tell you about it in later mails. Please visit the website ( http://theperlconference.amsterdam/ ) and register for the conference if you haven't done so already ( http://theperlconference.amsterdam/how-to-register.html ). This seems to be the first big email about this conference, and we apologize for the omission. Nevertheless, the word has been spread via other media, and we already have 223 registered participants for the conference, coming from over 30 countries (see http://theperlconference.amsterdam/stats ). We hope and look forward to welcome at least 300 people. We have received many talk submissions and already have accepted more than 60 talks for the conference (see http://theperlconference.amsterdam/talks ) and several awesome keynote speakers. We have enough talks to fill three tracks, and we are busy filling a fourth track. For that, we hope you will submit a talk, and please do so after reading this page: http://theperlconference.amsterdam/call-for-papers.html The latest deadline to submit a talk is Saturday 8 July at 23:59:59 (CEST/Amsterdam Time), so you still have plenty of time to submit a talk. We have an excellent venue, which is affordable, big, wheelchair-accessible. It has its own bar (with some excellent beers) and restaurant. Catering has been taken care of, there will be food for meat-eaters, vegetarians, vegans, and special dietary requirements can be catered for too. There will also be coffee and tea breaks, and of course a conference dinner. As you would expect from me personally, I will fill a booth with a lot of nice Perl-items (books, including books about Perl 6, stuffed toys, wine, stickers, buttons, and more) and it will be decorated with the largest library of Perl books, the Perl camel, and more. We do have several sponsors who will have a booth as well. Speaking of sponsors, we would welcome more sponsors. If your company, and/or you personally, wants to sponsor The Perl Conference in Amsterdam, please visit http://theperlconference.amsterdam/sponsoring.html and read about several sponsoring opportunities. With regards to the name of the conference: YAPC (the abbreviation means Yet Another Perl Conference) has been a household name for the big European, American, Asian and other conferences about Perl. O'Reilly ( https://www.oreilly.com/ ) organised the very first "The Perl Conference" in August 1997 in San Jose, California, and the second one in August 1998, again in San Jose. In 1999, they renamed the conference to OSCON (for Open Source Conference), because O'Reilly wanted to cover all open source. The Perl-community organised the first YAPC:NA (Yet Another Perl Conference, North America) in 1999 in Pittsburgh. The first YAPC::Europe was in London in 2000. I co-organised the second YAPC::Europe, in 2001, in Amsterdam. OK, now back to the name: lots of Perl-people are accustomed to the name YAPC. But to people who are not so used to the lovely acronyms we Perl-people invent, the name :"The Perl Conference" is completely self-explanatory. Ask your boss "Can I please go to The Perl Conference" and your boss will understand what you mean. O'Reilly graciously allowed the organisers of the American and European conferences about Perl to use the name "The Perl Conference", as long as we make clear that O'Reilly is not organising the conference. Well, they are not, and we thank them for allowing us to use the name "The Perl Conference in Amsterdam" for the European installment of the conference. Thank you for your attention, and I am hoping to meet you in Amsterdam in August.

Lots of things have been organised, we are also very close to publishing the schedule (a list of talks is already online, see http://act.perlconference.org/tpc-2017-amsterdam/talks ), and we will make some more announcements in the next two weeks. We are happy that 272 people have registered to attend the conference. Of course, we hope for some more ( http://theperlconference.amsterdam/how-to-register.html ). Today, we are asking for volunteers. We do have a nice team of organisers, and several volunteers for several tasks. But we could use some more volunteers, for instance for timekeeping, camera work, at the registration desk. Please visit our wiki , and add your name at your preferred task section, and how many hours you are willing to donate. http://act.perlconference.org/tpc-2017-amsterdam/volunteers.html Of course, your hard work will be rewarded. We are still thinking about an appropriate way to do that (wine from the German city of Perl could be involved, or a vintage Perl t-shirt from the collection of Liz and Wendy, or something completely different). Many thanks anyway! Thank you again for your attention, and I am looking forward to meet you in Amsterdam in August.

The schedule is now complete with an extra fourth track and it is looking interesting and exciting ( http://act.perlconference.org/tpc-2017-amsterdam/schedule ) . Now you can have even more excitement by learning from the best: Damian Conway, Jeff Goff and brian d foy. People who have proven they know how to teach you useful and high quality topics. We offer each course for a nice price of just 150 euro per attendee. It took us quite a while to get there, and I personally take the blame for the tardiness, and I apologize, and I realise that many of you already have booked flight or other means of travel, booked hotels and so on. I hope many of you are still able and willing to join in. The topics that brian, Jeff and Damian will lecture about are definitely worth your attention and effort. brian d foy will improve your skills and knowlegde regarding Perl 5 with his well-known and up-to-date class "Mastering Perl" on Monday, August 7. On Tuesday August 8, he will go sideways, with attention to several small features of Perl in "Effective Perl Programming". He is (co-)author of good-selling books with the same names. Damian Conway will teach you how to parse Perl 6 code, using regular expressions and grammars, in his course "Parsing Perl 6" on Monday, August 7. On Tuesday, August 8, he will impress us with his presentation skills and teach us how to be a bit like the presentation wizard that he is in the training "Presentation Aikido". Many people have benefitted from this course when it comes to improving their presentation skills. We offer this course as an extra service to the speakers of this conference for a price of 55 euro, in the hope that it will help them make their presentations even better than they already are . Jeff Goff will help you with your first steps in using Perl 6. He has given this course several times before, at different conferences and workshops, while adding new content and adapting to new insights all of the time. His training "Introducing Perl 6" is on Tuesday, August 8. At the end of the day, you can make your first Perl 6 programs. So, top content, top trainers, and on top of that, tea, coffee and lunch are included in each of the trainings. Also, on Tuesday you can join early registration for The Perl Conference in Amsterdam, so you don't have to stand in line on Wednesday morning. In case you did not yet register, please don't worry, we still love to have more attendees to the conference. Register here: http://theperlconference.amsterdam/how-to-register.html .

More info at mi.cro.services, and Jonathan's talk from the Swiss Perl Workshop is here. 2. Some of us want to try to organize a Nordic Perl Workshop and a Mojoconf next year. There is also some funding available from OSDC and NUUG. We talk about the possibilities, and what our needs are for this to become a reality. Please show up if you might be interested in helping out! Afterwards we go out for a beer. https://www.meetup.com/Oslo-pm/events/243059077/ -- Rune Nilsen +47 90856985
