It was Monday, June 24, 2002 when Peter Scott took the soap box, saying: : At 07:23 AM 6/24/02 -0700, Randal L.

I do. I'd like to have an informal meeting with Perl Trainers. I give talks now and then but I'd like to get at a wealth of resources all at once. Randal is a wonderful teacher but he's not the only one. I have specific questions to ask and I want to hear many points of view. Also, I think it would rock if Mark-Jason would give his Conference Presentation Judo talk at this BoF. I missed it at YAPC and even though I can get the slides online, I think it'd be great for a BoF like this. Comming from an aspiring trainer, please keep the BoF. -- Casey West
