The First International Conference on Software Testing, Verification and
Validation is happening in Lillehammer, Norway April 9 - 11. The conference
proper is April 10th and 11th, just after Go Open and the Oslo QA Hackathon.
I think this is a good chance for Perl QA to crash the IEEE and get Perl
talking to the rest of the software industry. I'm sure we could show them a
thing or two and vice-versa.
The cost of the conference is $1000, a bit much for a lark. I don't know how
much of a hallway track they will have, I don't think an IEEE conference will
be quite as free-wheeling as OSCON. So I would like to try to convince them
to give us complementary passes on the weight of our broad QA experience and
"hey, we just flew in from all around the world". The more of us intending to
go the better chance we have.
So please announce your intention on the wiki:
