This is the official Call for Presentations and here are the important deadlines: ?- Deadline for talk proposals: April 30th 2009 ?- Speaker notification: May 7th 2009 This year's theme for the conference is Corporate Perl. Here's what we're looking for: ?- We're looking for talks on how corporate companies use Perl and why; ?- We're looking for talks to fit our beginner's track (if you want to submit one and don't know what about, reach us at organizers at yapceurope2009.org and we'll share with you our preliminary draft of an expected beginner's track); ?- And, as usual, there is also enough room for talks that don't fit any of those groups, so we'll be looking for and expecting dozens of proposal on everything that is Perl related. We'll be offering two kinds of time-slots for talks: ?- 20 minutes ?- 40 minutes If you really need a different time-slot, get in touch with us and we'll see what we can do. Speakers may submit multiple talks. All speakers will have their registration fee waived. ?- To submit a talk, go to http://yapceurope2009.org/ye2009/newtalk ?- If you don't have a user yet, please register at http://yapceurope2009.org/ye2009/register For any inquiry, contact us at organizers at yapceurope2009.org, and don't forget to submit your proposals no later than midnight GMT on April 30th, 2009. -- Jos?

Message-ID: <18A528F4-F9BE-46D3-9F20-60985DAA4E9A@ggvaidya.com> Hey, There's a fantastic new Perl advocation/community website slowly coming to life; check it out [1]! Highlights include a very nice article on Catalyst's plus points [2], written by Jon Allen, the guy behind http://perldoc.perl.org/. There's also a couple of Perl jobs in Singapore being advertised on jobs.perl.org [3]. I notice there are a few new subscribers on this mailing list this week; welcome!
