DESCRIPTION:Usenet has a bad reputation for being full of spam and idiots\,
but this is no longer really justified. Most of the spam is dealt with b
y automatic cancelbots and the current crop of idiots don't know about it
because as far as they're concerned\, if it isn't Teh Web then it doesn't
exist. So the only thing that sucks about Usenet these days is the dreadf
ul client software. With a good client\, Usenet becomes a great place to
discuss any topic and make friends.
\n
\nThat's why I wrote news2mail and
its companion mail2news. They are perl scripts which speak sufficient sub
sets of NNTP and SMTP to make Usenet available in your mail client and ena
ble posting to Usenet as if it were a mailing list. You can then use mutt
\, the One True Email Client\, to read and write Usenet. Hooray.

DESCRIPTION:The Lightning Talks Schedule:
\n
\nhttp://www.justanotherperlha
cker.org/lightning/2007yapceu.shtml
\n
\n
\nWhy Would You Want to do a Lig
htning Talk?
\n
\nMaybe you've never given a talk before\, and you'd like
to start small. For a Lightning Talk\, you don't need to make slides\, and
if you do decide to make slides\, you only need to make three.
\n
\nMaybe
you're nervous and you're afraid you'll mess up. It's a lot easier to pla
n and deliver a five minute talk than it is to deliver a long talk. And if
you do mess up\, at least the painful part will be over quickly.
\n
\nMay
be you don't have much to say. Maybe you just want to ask a question\, or
invite people to help you with your project\, or boast about something you
did\, or tell a short cautionary story. These things are all interesting
and worth talking about\, but there might not be enough to say about them
to fill up thirty minutes.
\n
\nMaybe you have a lot of things to say\, an
d you're already going to give a long talk on one of them\, and you don't
want to hog the spotlight. There's nothing wrong with giving several Light
ning Talks. Hey\, they're only five minutes.
\n
\nOn the other side\, peop
le might want to come to a lightning talk when they wouldn't come to a lon
g talk on the same subject. The risk for the attendees is smaller: If the
talk turns out to be dull\, or if the person giving the talk turns out to
be a really bad speaker\, well\, at least it's over in five minutes. With
lightning talks\, you're never stuck in some boring lecture for forty-five
minutes.
\n
\nStill having trouble picking a topic\, here are some sugges
tions:
\n
\n 1. Why my favorite module is X.
\n 2. I want to do cool p
roject X. Does anyone want to help?
\n 3. Successful Project: I did proj
ect X. It was a success. Here's how you could benefit.
\n 4. Failed Proj
ect: I did project X. It was a failure\, and here's why.
\n 5. Heresy: P
eople always say X\, but they're wrong. Here's why.
\n 6. You All Suck:
Here's what is wrong with the our community.
\n 7. Call to Action: Let's
all do more of X / less of X.
\n 8. Wouldn't it be cool if X?
\n 9. S
omeone needs to do X.
\n 10. Wish List
\n 11. Why X was a mistake.
\n 1
2. Why X looks like a mistake\, but isn't.
\n 13. What it's like to do X.
\n 14. Here's a useful technique that worked.
\n 15. Here's a technique
I thought would be useful but didn't work.
\n 16. Why algorithm X sucks.
\n 17. Comparison of algorithms X and Y.
\n
\nOf course\, you could giv
e the talk on anything you wanted\, whether or not it is on this list. If
we get a full schedule of nothing but five minutes of ranting and raving o
n each topic\, a good time will still be had by most.

DESCRIPTION:This talk will discuss three new Perl modules:
\n
\n* DBIx::MyS
erver - server-side implementation of the MySQL protocol\;
\n* DBIx::MyPar
se - parse SQL statements by calling MySQL's own parser\;
\n* DBIx::MyServ
erPP - pure-perl SQL parser derived from MySQL's grammar and lexer\;
\n
\n
Using those modules\, one can write servers speaking the MySQL protocol th
at accept\, rewrite\, answer or forward SQL queries.
\n
\nA fully-function
al script is presented that makes any Perl data structure or DBI data sour
ce available to any MySQL client.
\n
\nThis way\, any data can be delivere
d directly into any ODBC enabled application\, or linked into a running My
SQL server using the Federated database engine.

g with:
\n
\n1. Why is TAP::Parser replacing Test::Harness in the core?
\
n2. What does TAP::Parser look like internally?
\n3. What else needs to
be done?
\n
\nTAP::Parser gives you tons of nifty features that you never
knew you wanted until you saw them. Doing them with Test::Harness is almo
st impossible and even the developers/maintainers of Test::Harness say thi
s and want it to be replaced.

DESCRIPTION:Perl modules are very well organized in CPAN: They can usually
be easily found and\, thanks to tools such as the CPAN shell\, they are ea
sy to install and update even by novice users. However\, when people start
using Perl systems (as opposed to using Perl for writing such systems)\,
asking them to take care of the dependencies or having them worry about di
fferent distribution architectures is a pain that should be spared from th
em.
\nIn my talk\, I will describe how Debian (and other Free Software dis
tributions) addresses this problem by packaging a large subset of the CPAN
archive\, what is the task and scope of Debian pkg-perl team\, some of th
e tools we use - and\, most importantly\, what is the best way for us to i
nteract with you\, the upstream authors' community - regarding our bug tra

DESCRIPTION:Pod::POM::Web is a Web application for browsing the documentati
on of
\nPerl components installed on your local machine. Since pages are
\
ndynamically generated\, they are always in sync with code actually
\ninst
alled.
\n
\nThe application offers
\n- a tree view for browsing through in
stalled modules
\n (with dynamic expansion of branches as they are visited
)
\n- a tree view for navigating and opening / closing sections
\n while
visiting a documentation page
\n- a source code view with syntax colorin
g
\n- direct access to perlfunc entries (builtin Perl functions)
\n- sea
rch through perlfaq headers
\n- fulltext search\, including names of Perl
variables
\n- parsing and display of version number
\n- display if and
when the displayed module entered Perl core
\n- parsing pod links and tran
slating them into hypertext links
\n- links to CPAN sites
\n
\nThe talk
will demo the application and will discuss the architecture
\nand internal
components.

DESCRIPTION:The talk will introduce "runpugs"\, the web terminal for Pugs t
hat allows you to try out Perl 6 via your web browser (run.pugscode.org).
\n The main goal of "runpugs" is to make it as easy as possible for peo
ple to try out Perl 6\, thus increasing the adoption and participation in
the project. As such I think it fits well with the "social perl" topic.
\n
The application is built around a generic (not Pugs-specific) web term
inal framework (Web::Terminal) consisting of a server back-end which manag
es the terminal sessions and an API for use in a front-end script.
\n
The talk will discuss the challenges (resource limitations\, speed\, ...)

\n
\nMeta progra

uch as object persistence\, dynamic code\, and establishing a common base
class typically involve a degree of meta programming. This talk will try
to get you thinking of such problems from a meta object perspective.
\n
\n
This talk is both a followup to the Moose introduction and a standalone di
scussion of meta programming. It will help you make better use of Moose's
full strength as a meta object protocol rather than just a cute class gen
eration syntax. However\, the focus is on the general approach as opposed
to the details of Moose\, making it useful regardless of whether you use
Moose\, another toolkit\, or even another language.

DESCRIPTION:Many internet sites have a vital interest to keep bots and craw

from being abused. A Captcha is a popular method for accomplishing this ta
sk.
\n
\nToday's captchas are almost exclusively based on skewed text char
acters\, which is very convenient for human users. However\, this method i
s threatened more and more by the intensive research and progress made in
the field of OCR (Optical Character Recognition).
\n
\nIn order to increas
e security and offer an alternative\, We developed a new captcha technique
in Perl\, based on object recognition. Using the GD module and a pluggabl
e architecture\, we present the user with a number of runtime algorithmica
lly generated images\, highly variable in appearance.
\n
\nWe present the
architecture of the system\, explain how to use it on your site\, and intr
oduce to the generation of your own objects.
\n
\nWe then discuss the poss
ible vulnerabilities of the approach against image recognition algorithms
and measures to be taken against that in the plugins.
\n
\nWe finish with
a few interesting points of today's Captchas in general.

\nI
am currently working for UBS in Zürich within a group that is responsible

DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, Perl has a very limited way of expressing that
something is going wrong: either warn or die. Syslog\, as example\, has a
more fine-grained way to say how serious the problems are. In Log::Repor
t\, the programmer of a module only produces the message and an indication
about why the message is produced. Only on the level of the main program
\, the decision is made who to inform and how\, in which language and what
character-set.
\n
\nLog::Report integrates Locale::TextDomain and Log::Di
spatch syntax\, to get a more homogeneous cooperation of modules. PPI is

DESCRIPTION:XML is ugly\, SOAP is a horror\, and if you use Perl you are on
your own! Using SOAP::Lite makes XML
\nprocessing a manual effort\, forc
ing you in understanding the protocol details\, the name-spaces\, and all
the hundreds of dirty exceptions and implementation differences.
\n
\nXML:
:Compile::Schema let you produce correct XML messages directly from perl H
ASHes (and vice versa). ::WSDL and ::SOAP bring a simplified procedural me
ssage exchange to Perl. No more manual XML!

DESCRIPTION:The CPAN6 project targets for a new (software) distribution sys
tem\, which combines the good of
\nCPAN with modern techniques (like authe
ntication)
\nand dynamic interfaces.
\n
\nThe project is now under develop
ment for more than a year\, so time has come to demonstrate some prototype
s\, and discuss some use-cases. The strategy for further development will
be discussed.

DESCRIPTION:I will give a brief overview of how and why you might need to e
volve your development\, deployment and production systems - making develo
pment easy and your site fast/reliable and scalable in the process.
\n
\n
Looking at historic\, current and evolving approaches\, I will take you th
rough from how we used to 'live' edit on one server with HTML in the code\
; to implementing Template Toolkit and 'front end / back end' servers\; to
the addition of version control\; all the way through to distributed cach
ing\, file systems and processing (aka Six Apart worship) with 15+ servers
.

DESCRIPTION:POE is a framework for cooperative\, event driven multitasking
in Perl.
\n
\nIt lends itself to a mulitude of different applications and
purposes including\, but not limited to:
\n
\n* networking servers and cli
ents\;
\n* network monitoring\;
\n* integration with existing event loops
such as Glib\, Event\, Gtk\, Tk\, etc\;
\n
\nA hackathon would be an oppor
tunity for POE developers to: gather\, discuss and exchange tips\, tricks
and best practises\; work on long delayed POE related modules\; provide ad
vice and support to newer and novice POE users.
\n
\nI unfortunately can't
say at this point what kind of hacking will be done. I intend to poll Roc
co Caputo and the other POE developers regarding possible things to be don
e. Also participents on the day would probably have their own ideas.
\n
\n
Regarding the short introduction\, I intend to produce enough material to
cover hopefully a diverse audience\, which can be tailored on the day
\ng
iven the attending persons.

DESCRIPTION:Perhaps you've inherited some old code\, and you'd like to put
it out of its misery. Maybe you're about to deploy a new system and you do
n't want everyone to make fun of you when hackers steal your granny's cred
it cards. Or maybe you just like breaking other people's code because you'
re a bitter curmudgeon who enjoys the challenge.
\nFinding exploitable vul
nerabilities is more than reading through perlsec and turning on the taint
switch. This talk will take you through modern tools and techniques for f
inding and making fun of vulnerabilities in other people's code\, as well
as writing tests to prevent it from happening to you. Examples from CPAN
and sourceforge will chosen and eviscerated on stage to illustrate each po
int.

DESCRIPTION:Scaling the distribution of content to many users is mostly a w
ell understood problem\, but its opposite\, scaling the collection of data
from many users to a data warehouse has many challenges that have not bee
n adequately solved using commodity hardware and software. This talk will
show you some strategies for collecting data really fast (> 1000 entries p
er second) and how you can reuse some of the techniques and tools used to
serve data\, to collect it. Attention will be paid to the various event ba
sed frameworks and their performance\, working with database partitioning\
, and archiving your data so that it can be easily mined later.
