Subject: [sb.pm] YAPC::NA:  It's earlier this year
Message-ID: <4AF6F077-3991-4313-8EDB-78D3C1BE3AAF@verizon.net>

YAPC::NA is taking place in Chicago on Monday-Wednesday, June 16-18.

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://
