IPW 2011 - Call for Papers
To suggest a talk, please use the web interface. All proposals must be
submitted by June 20th, 2011 August 1st, 2011.
This year's theme for the workshop is Two Perls, which wants to put relevance both on Perl 5 and Perl 6. The topic is, however, just a loose guideline: any Perl-related topic will be fine. Some interesting topics could be:
- "Light" Web application frameworks (Mojolicious, Dancer, ...)
- Moose
- PSGI / Plack
- Overview on "Modern Perl"
- Applications of Rakudo Star
- APIs for cloud services (Amazon, Google, Rackspace, ...)
- Reflex
- Catalyst & DBIx::Class
- New web technologies (websocket, node.js, ...)
If you send a proposal, please fill in as much information as possible about yourself in your profile, after having registered.
As for past editions, an introductory course to Perl is already scheduled.
