I think sitting through a large number of talks that might cover anything from the world of Perl would probably fry my brain, so perhaps a set of talks with a common theme might be easier. > 2/ Would the workshop need to be on the weekend? Currently I'm in CFT mode, so I have no opinion. I suspect most bosses would be quite reasonable about people having days off to go to a Perl workshop. > 3/ Would you consider paying for the workshop? Depends what the money would be used for. Would it be used to hire a decent venue, put on refreshments, donate money to whatever Perl-related charity we're supporting this month, pay speakers or anything else I've not thought of? > 4/ If you would consider paying, how much would you pay? Since, as mentioned, I'm in CFT mode I'm also very very skint. It would also depend what I'dbe getting for my money. > 5/ Do you have any ideas about appropriate venues? Lets see... somewhere neither north nor south, neither east nor west, within about 30 seconds of a tube station, with no stairs, food for every possible group including anyone on the Atkins diet, infinite quantities of beer and what else have people asked for? OK, I'll shut up now. No, I have no idea. Ali -- Ali Young [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ali.anarres.org/ 0777 32 96 156
