The call for speakers ends next week! 3/31/2010! Get out to the website, get your self registered and get your talks and lighting talks in before it is too late!

YAPC::NA::2010 is just around the corner. (Well, in as much as something 8 weeks away is "around the corner.") Last week, I met with Heath Bair and the other organizers and took the position of speaker liaison. So, I should probably talk some about what we're looking for.

YAPC::NA::2010 is going to be about "Modern Perl 5". We believe that Perl 5 is a vibrant and living language with many uncharted places it can go. Perl 6 is going to be great, but we can't wait until Christmas for Perl 6.

So, we're looking for presentations about Perl 5 in all of its modern glory. Whatcha got?

You'll need to register (or login) to the YAPC::NA::2010 website (http://yapc2010.com/), then after registering for the conference, you can submit your CFP.

    YAPC::NA::2010 is going to be about "Modern Perl 5". We believe that Perl 5 is a vibrant and living language with many uncharted places it can go. Perl 6 is going to be great, but we can't wait until "Christmas" for Perl 6.

    So, we're looking for presentations about Perl 5 in all of its modern glory.

    Right now, we're planning for 12 tracks, 4 per day. If we get enough talk submissions and registrations (particularly daypasses), we have the option to expand into a fifth daily track (for a total of 15 tracks).

    Also, we will be doing daily lightning talk sessions.

    The CFP window will be closed on March 31st at midnight GMT.
