Hi, I am back and have two good news :-)
After I told O'Reilly that the Embperl users are trying to collect money to make it possible for me to come to the conference, they have checked there funding siutation again and now made it possible to pay for the hotel for me :-) The second good news is that enough people have donated money for the travel, so putting both together we have reached the target and I can go to the conference. I am very happy that the Embperl users have made this possible. Without your support, this hadn't taken place! I will setup a paypal account during the next days and tell you the necessary informations. Thanks again very much Gerald ------------------------------------------------------------- Gerald Richter ecos electronic communication services gmbh Internetconnect * Webserver/-design/-datenbanken * Consulting Post: Tulpenstrasse 5 D-55276 Dienheim b.
