So ApacheCon was cool and loaded with mod_perl talks. You gotta read Nat's comments from the last ApacheCon about mod_perl at his journal: http://use.perl.org/journal.pl?op=display&uid=29&start=5 Why? Remember last year we have talked about having a dedicated mod_perl conference? And Nat promised us to make everything to have at least a dedicated mod_perl track at the Perl Conference. Nat has kept his promise and thanks to him we have a load of mod_perl talks at the upcoming TPC: We have 6 tutorials (18 hours!) http://conferences.oreillynet.com/cs/os2001/pub/10/mod_perl_tutorials.html We have 16 sessions (10+ hours!) http://conferences.oreillynet.com/cs/os2001/pub/w/os2001/sessions_modperl.html Which gives about 28 hours of pure mod_perl. Nat rules!!! So make sure to be there in crowds, so on the next conference we get this amount of hours and more to cover mod_perl. There are so many interesting talks to go to (not only in the modperl domain), I really don't know what to do. I guess I'll end up jumping from session to session, just to see people talking and then read the handouts :( Oh, if you choose to go with Damian Conway's track, then you don't need to worry. You have him talking for almost all 5 days non-stop :) A good choice :) So to conclude this email, I want to thank Nat for giving us the mod_perl track at the upcoming TPC, and hope that they will keep it in the future. BTW, in Nat's story he incorrectly links to Doug's home page as a source for mod_perl 2.0 cvs snapshots. Instead you want to go here: http://perl.apache.org/from-cvs/modperl-2.0/ (you probably need to subscribe to the dev list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) if you like playing with fire). (Nat: it's too bad that this link at the top of my post will point to the wrong place, after you add a few more stories, as there is no way to directly link to the entry in your journal.) _____________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH -- Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide http://perl.apache.org/guide mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://apachetoday.com http://eXtropia.com/ http://singlesheaven.com http://perl.apache.org http://perlmonth.com/
