Yeah... at the Perl2.0 conference, there were so many people
(including myself) that went up to Tim O. asking him to have the next
one on the east coast. Why not get the real stats of perl people
geographic distribution from the perl conference? Then adjust it to
account for the increased cost and time of travelling to that area
(reduce the weighting of the west coast numbers) and see.
I don't think you'll find that there are more perlers (and/or
mod_perlers on the left coast than there are on the right.
