   2009.  Mark your calendars for June 22 through Wednesday, June 24.  Oh

The Pittsburgh Perl Mongers are hard at work planning this years  
Pittsburgh Perl Workshop. (We are also planing YAPC::NA 09 but more on  
that later. But go ahead and mark your calendars for June 22 through  
Wednesday, June 24, 2009). Mark your calendars for this years PPW will  
be October 11th and 12th 2008.

At this years YAPC::NA I was surprised at how much was going on before  
and after YAPC. So if you plan on coming to PPW and would like to have  
a hack-a-thon or something before or after the official PPW event and  
would like some help planing that let us know and we will do what we  
can to help.

PPW08 will have more training, more fun, and more talks than every  
before but if you think we might be missing something send us a note  
about it and maybe we can make it happen. We can not make everyone's  
wishes come true but we would like to try.

If you want to keep up with PPW announcements we have an announce  
mailing list http://groups.google.com/group/ppw-announce/.

Also you can keep an eye on http://pghpw.org/.

If you want to contact the PPW organizers you can email us at ppw- 
cabal at googlegroups.com.

If you are interested in being a sponsor you can contact us at  
sponsors at pghpw.org.

This year we are going to be offering a speaker mentor program. This  
is a chance to have someone work with you to polish your talk from  
idea to delivery. If you are interested in being a mentor or being  
mentored please let us know.

If you have already have a talk proposal you can send it to us now at  
ppw-proposals at googlegroups.com.
