hi, Thanks for approving my registration to the mailing list!
According to my maps Houston isn't far from Austin so I hope you'll be interested in this. See the CFP for the Texas Linux Fest (in Austin) below. I have asked for a Perl community booth there and already got approved. I setup a page on the TPF wiki to coordinate the Perl presence there: https://www.socialtext.net/perl5/index.cgi?events_2011_texas_linux_fest Just to compare, SCALE in Los Angeles will have 2 Perl related talks - one of them by chromatic, sponsored by the Perl Ecosystem Group - and they will also have an LA.pm / Perl booth. It would be nice to have a few Perl related talk here too. Oh, Patrick Michaud already indicated that he is planning to submit a Perl 6 related talk. It should be fun. regards Gabor Szabo http://szabgab.com/ Perl Ecosystem Group http://perl-ecosystem.org/ ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nathan Willis <[email protected]> Date: Tue, Jan 18, 2011 at 3:00 AM Subject: The 2011 Call for Papers is Open To: [email protected] Texas Linux Fest 2011 Call For Papers open! ******************************************************* We are proud to officially open the call for papers for Texas Linux Fest 2011, scheduled for April 2 at the Hilton Austin hotel in downtown Austin, Texas.
