Dear All,<br>
<br>
*TALK DEADLINE*<br>
This is your countdown notice that lets you all know that the
deadline for submitting a talk to the London Perl Workshop is
rapidly approaching. This year the date of Friday the 25th October
has been chosen.<br>
<br>
<meta charset="utf-8">
The theme for the London Perl Workshop will be Decadon: A Decade of
the London Perl Workshop. It will focus on the past ten years of the
London Perl Mongueurs and the London Perl Workshop, and will focus
on the manner in which Perl is used in the commercial world and the
strength of Perl for development in an enterprise environment; we
would also like to see talks on the usage of Perl in the past 25
years and the evolution of the environment. You can use any aspect
of Perl such as Camelia, Rakudo, Raptor, etc. Speakers are invited
to talk on any subject that relates to this theme, though we will
also accept talks on other subjects.<br>
<br>
This year we hope to have access to three Workshop rooms and would
like to run as many workshops as possible to introduce new users to
the world of Perl and to refresh the skills of those wishing to
engage with the latest developments in the Perl world. If you wish
to submit a workshop please use the same submission form as the
talks, please note that workshops will be 60, 120 or 240 minutes in
length.<br>
<br>
*REGISTRATION*<br>
Once again I would like to inform you all that early registration is
incredibly beneficial to the event. It allows us to judge numbers
for the sponsored coffee, snacks and evening social event. Please
sign up early and please help us spread the word.<br>
<br>
This year there is a second level to registration. We have tickets.
All attendees need to state what ticket level they would like to
have, this includes speakers. There is no barrier to entry and you
should feel free to take the £0 ticket if you wish to do so. However,
we also have 3 ticket levels above this (£25, £50 and £100) these
voluntary ticket amounts wil contribute directly towards the hosting
of this event and if we reach certain targets other special things
in the coming year.<br>
<br>
Please make sure you select the ticket you want. We will also be
collecting donations, as per last year, for a number of special Perl
projects on the day.<br>
<br>
*SPONSORS*<br>
As always we would like to have as many sponsors as possible, not
just for their valuable contribution to the holding of the event but
as participants at the Workshop.<br>
<br>
If you know of anyone who wishes to sponsor the London Perl Workshop
please have them contact Mark as soon as possible.<br>
<br>
As always we look forward to seeing you all at the Workshop on the
30th November. This is the 10th anniversary of the London Perl
Workshop and we should mark this year with a special event.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
