The theme for this year's conference is "Beautiful Perl", which we hope will inspire submissions on this and related topics.
Whether you have done beautiful things in Perl, you think Perl code is beautiful in itself (or not!) or if Perl has helped you do beautiful things, we would love to hear about it.
Although this is our main theme for the conference, it will not be the only one, and as such we will also be accepting talks on topics on just about any theme.
Please submit talk proposals via the conference web site until Sunday, 25th May 2008. A Call for Participation will follow in a few weeks."
Nordic Perl Workshop is a workshop for the community by the community and we want you to submit interesting and inspiring presentations in order to make the workshop successful. Talk lengths are the usual 20 and 40 minutes but we might consider longer ones if motivated. Any subject is welcome as long as it's related to Perl somehow - from algorithms for social graphing and web-technologies to Perl5 core optimizations and language implementation targeting the Parrot VM. To submit a talk either do it online on the workshop website[1] or to claes@surfar.nu. If submitting via email please prefix the subject with [NPW]. Please submit talks no later than Friday 2nd of May. Accepted speakers will be notified Monday 5th of May.
Apart from speakers the workshop also requires eager participants. Workshop fee is 500 SEK (~ 55 EUR) and there's a reduced fee at 250 SEK (~ 28 EUR) for students. This includes admission to the workshop and coffee. Registration is done via the website[1] which uses ACT so if you have attended a previous workshop registration is dead simple.
[1] Website is not online yet but we're working on it really hard. The URL is as always http://www.perlworkshop.dk/
