30/04/2007 - Disembarkation
The 5th NPW is now over, and judging by the comments, everybody had a great time. The organizers would like to thank everybody involved: the volunteers, the attendees, and of course the speakers for making the Nordic Perl Workshop 2007 such a success.

We are looking forward to seeing you all next year in Stockholm!

28/04/2007 - We're airborne!
NPW2007 day 1 was great; most attendees have arrived, and the talks are going well.

There are some issues with the wifi, since the venue decided that today was a good day to move the main firewall, but it look like it has stabilized for now.

The schedule seems to have gotten a life of its own; to keep up to date, it's best that you check it yourself.

12/03/2007 - Sponsor Announcement; Foreningen Fri Software (FoFS)
We have applied for a grant from FoFS among other and today we received a positive response we are very happy to have FoFS sponsor our workshop, since it acknowledges and underlines the fact that Perl is free software, something you sometimes forget - our favorite toy and tool is actually free.

We owe special thanks to Kenneth Geisshirt of FoFS, who mentioned the possiblity, so without him we would not have applied for a sponsorship in the first place.

Consider joining FoFS, it is only 100 DKK
