Frequently Asked Questions

So is this really going ahead?
Yes, it's confirmed for December the 1st.

How many people are going to turn up?
We estimate about 150-250 people. Last year we got about 200.

And how much is going to cost.
Nothing. Nada. Zip. Our sponsors rock.

So, is there going to be a tshirt?
No, the workshop is free. If we made tshirts then we'd have to charge and that would just be silly.

Feel free to print your own designs up if you want, there may be a prize.

How about muffins? Or other food?
No. Again with the keeping the costs down.

Wireless?
Nope. For start it's more hassle to set up and would have to be cleared by Westminster University.

Secondly it's rude to type during someone's talk and when you're out of talks you should be socialising :)

Seriously though, there will be wireless right?
No. We're hoping to start a trend.

Will the slides be put on line afterwards.
We hope so. We're also going to try and film the talks but we're not making any promises whatsoever.

Is there an official hotel?
No, sorry, we tried to make things as simple for ourselves as possible.

Are the London Perl Mongers doing anything on the Friday night before the workshop?
Yes, probably.
