Hello -
For a little insipration on Friday:
The Perl community recently had a conference in Vienna and one of the
organizers posted the results. Other than having 340 people attend, 70
talks, a crazy arm-wrestling match between geeks and excellent food -
they raised $39,000!
The proceeds will go toward the next YAPC conference in Copenhagen,
some to the YAPC Europe Foundation, and nearly $20,000 will be
contributed back to the Perl community for further development of
Perl.
Have a read:
