Richard Dice writes "Damian Conway, the legendary Perl speaker, trainer, module developer, etc. will be in Toronto, Canada between July 5 and July 12, 2002, inclusive. During his stay in Toronto he will deliver 3 free public talks and up to 4 days of commercial corporate training. The free talks are presented under the auspices of his Yet Another Society grant."

"What do I want you to know?

• Show up for the free public talks!
• Please contribute a bit of $$ to help fund his trip here!
• If you think you can benefit from Damian's corporate training (and you can!), then get in touch with me to book your space!

All the details can be found at http://www.dice-con.com/damian/. This site will continually be updated as new information becomes available.

Cheers,
Richard"

  For those who prefer a more Westerly location, Damian will be presenting 4 classes during the 7/15 week in Seattle, kicked off by a Lake Washington cruise featuring the house of $Bill Gates on the 14th. See the Consultix Perl web-page [teachmeperl.com], which is being updated routinely with additional details, for more information.

  I would go, but I was hoping for "Programming in Romulan" instead.

  Quite frankly, most of those topics look way over my head.

    Fear not. Damian will make a garden ornament to write Haikus in Klingon in an afternoon.

    Eh, that's why you go to learn about them. Would be a bit silly going to hear a talk about something you already understand, no?
