YAPC:::EU 2009 should be in Lisbon

I've put together a video from several members of the Perl community giving the YAPC::EU committee 10 reasons YAPC::EU 2009 should be in Lisbon. These aren't the sort of things that they'll find in the proposal, but I hope they'll consider it when they vote!

Far East Perl

We have changed the date of Russian Far East Perl Workshop, moving it one week further. The new date is 26 September, it's Friday.We joined our event to the Coastal Internet-Forum (PRIF-2008), which happens to happen on 22-26th of September, the dates very close to our initial dates of the workshop.We are still a separate event, and after joining to PRIF we gain in having a venue equipped with desktop computers, projector and internet access. And it also potentially can attract more people for the workshop.Thanks to Linux Centre & Linux Format for suggesting to join the event in Vladivostok.

Moosifying logging

Moose is great, at least the parts that I've discovered so far. It gives a very clean interface for working with OO in perl. After some playing around and discovering the main concepts behind moose and failing to find a logging role using my favorite logging system log4perl I sat down an did a little coding (it is really just a few lines) and uploaded to CPAN as MooseX::Log::Log4perl. If you want to get some more info read it up in my blog...

YAPC::Faces

Conferences are attractive because you receive a goodies bag there :-) I know what is the most useful thing which should appear there. This is a face list (or, hmm, face sheet) with photos of attendees, their names, nicknames and PM-groups. All printed in colour on hard paper. Might be cool, isn't it? Especially at previous YAPC of 2007 name aimed to socialize people.
