Please pass it along the Pittsburgh Perl Workshop is fast approaching.

The Pittsburgh Perl Mongers are pleased to announce The PITTSBURGH PERL 
WORKSHOP, a two-day, low-cost conference on Saturday and Sunday, October 
13-14, 2007.

The Pittsburgh Perl Workshop is an annual conference dedicated to the 
Perl programming language. In 2006, the Pittsburgh Perl Mongers hosted 
the first Perl Workshop based in the United States. This year, the 
Workshop has been expanded to two days. The 2007 Workshop is structured 
as a series of short lectures, but the atmosphere is low key and 
engaging: the perfect combination to open your mind and then cram it 
full of good stuff.

After last year's conference you gave us lots of feedback, and we listened.
* The workshop was expanded to a two-day event to allow for more talks, 
birds-of-a-feather sessions, and social interactions.
* A one-day course for programmers with little or no Perl 
experience—-taught by a world-class Perl trainer—-was added.
* The schedule has been improved to allow you more flexibility in 
choosing sessions to attend.

Lightning Talks

There’s still time to get a third of your fifteen minutes of fame! 
Submit your lightning talk today. The deadline for early acceptance is 
one week before the conference (October 6). But if you have an idea on 
the first day of the conference, we’re holding at least two lightning 
talk spots until the end of that day. However, you have a much better 
chance of being accepted if submit your talk now.

Stay up to date with everything that's going on with the Perl Workshop 
by subscribing to our RSS feed at http://pghpw.org/ppw2007/atom/en.xml.

Hope to see you there.
