If it goes well in YAPC::NA, maybe OSCON next year? They do things like this for film production (http://www.filmracing.com) and I like the twist in that.

All in all, sounds like a good idea. _______________________________________________ List: [email protected] Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
