YAPC::Asia 2008 just started and is in its full swing.

For those who cannot make it, we have a stream available on http://live.yapcasia.org/ thanks to our streaming sponsors.

Enjoy!

The schedule of YAPC::Asia 2008 is now out. We have full of interesting talks for 3 tracks on 2 full days. Pretty exciting.

We also started the call for Lightning Talks today. Propose yours to speak for 5 minutes whatever you want.

YAPC::Asia 2008 website got a redesign, along with the announcement of sponsors and the initial set of talks (currently 33 talks and more to come!).

We have Larry Wall and Michael Schwern as keynote speakers this year. Tickets will go on sale on March 25th Tuesday local time. There's been YAPC::Asia tradition that 300 tickets go sold out in a week, so don't miss it.

YAPC::Asia committee is pleased to announce that YAPC::Asia 2008 is now scheduled on May 15-16, 2008 in Tokyo.

We are also announcing the call for presentations and early registration for the conference today. We are looking for 20 and 40 minutes presentations. The deadline for submissions is February 25th, 2008.

The conference website uses Act so you can sign in using your existent account if you've been to one of past YAPCs or Perl Workshops in North America or Europe. Special Thanks to Éric Cholet for helping us out setting up the site. We're working on Japanese translation of the site and hopefully will contribute back soon!
