use Perl

The organization for the 4th Italian Perl Workshop is underway. The workshop will be held in Pisa, on September 18 and 19. Entrance will be free of charge, and there might even be complimentary coffee breaks.

While we complete the "official web site" (based on Act, of course), you can read the CFP and start planning your trip (talks will be primarily in Italian, but this never stopped anyone)

IPW 2008 - Call for papers & questions

You can influence the topics that will be covered during the workshop in two ways: you can propose your own talk, or you can propose a topic for discussion.

To propose either, you can use the web interface (when we'll finish it). All proposals are to be sent before June 30, 2008.

If you send a proposal, please fill in as much information as possible about yourself in your profile, after having registered.

Some talk are already defined:

1. an introductory course on Perl
2. talks about the usage of the main GUI libraries (Gtk+2, Tk, WxWidgets)

You can choose between 3 different durations:

120 minutes:

for "tutorial"-style talks, where you describe a technology or a complex module; also for discussions about very ample or introductory topics

50 minutes:

for complex or detailed talks; also for most discussions

20 minutes:

for most talks; also for discussions about limited topics
