The deadline for YAPC proposals was extended to the 1st March.  The
plans for Perl 6 would have been known by the core team before Larry's
announcement at FOSDEM so I'm not sure those dates had an impact on
the talks proposals that were received.

Yes, there will be a Perl 6 Hackathon on the Thursday.  Larry will be
there along a number of key developers.

There is going to be a Q&A session with Larry Wall on the Tuesday
afternoon.  Do you think that there should be a Perl 6 BOF in addition
to this?

If yes, I can see about having it arranged.

All the best,
