Hi Wendy,
It sounds like you're turning this into a good new story. Stop it
immediately. We only go in for bad news stories at the moment.
Only joking. It all seems under control.

Hi,
Isn't this something TPF should get behind?
The Perl Community organises good conferences but they tend to be for quite
small audiences. I've been told that YAPC Tokyo is the biggest with roughly
800 attendees and the next biggest ones are grouped around the 300 mark.

Hi Duncan,
Thank you for this plea for assistance. Much appreciated!
The last several years, we, a small group of people who have been
(co-)organizers of YAPC::Europe, Perl Workshops, hackathons and Perl
Monger meetings, have set up a Fosdem presence. If I recall
correctly, after some
Hi Duncan,
Please contact the TPF and let them know how many hours a week you are
able to commit to helping co-ordinate this sort of thing.

Hi Leo,
I ran a workshop at this year's LPW.
I got the company I work for to sponsor LPW.
All the sponsorship money went to LPW, I paid my own expenses.
I'll know next week whether I've succeeded in getting some sponsorship for
the QA Hackathon.
I've been to 6 of the 9 LPWs. The last 5 plus
And I put a lot of effort at very short notice into an article for this
year's Catalyst Advent Calendar.

Before this blows up, can i just say that Leo is a good guy and your work
speaks for itself Duncan, and sometimes we can all fire off a quick email a

Hi Duncan,
I salute you for this! Well done, thank you for your support.
And I realise your question about Fosdem was a genuine question.
The answer I gave was not the right one.

Hi Duncan,
Sorry that was not meant to be patronising - so many people say
TPF should do X,Y,Z - but miss that the TPF/Perl community needs
people to get on and do it. As Wendy has mentioned this has
come up many times.
I did not mean to criticise you personally, just pointing out that if you or
Maybe what we need is a match.com of sorts for the Perl community. Who has
time/skills/resources and who in the Perl community/TPF knows that something
needs done.
I'll pick on Jess (castaway) as an example .

That would get snapped up every week. And the
Hi Leo,
No worries.
I've seen your presentations on Puppet, DBIx::Class and Plack and always

Hi Wendy,
TPF posted a couple of days ago that it has £100,000 (or dollars or
whatever) to distribute, so resources isn't the problem.
A couple of days ago Perl's official presence at Fosdem was minimal. I
assume you didn't try very hard to get sponsorship because there was very
little to
