FOSDEM 2011
Bonjour and Hallo Nestoria Blog readers!
This weekend, February 5th and 6th, some of our developers here are heading over to Brussels for the Free and Open Source Software Developers' European Meeting, more commonly abbreviated to FOSDEM.
FOSDEM is a completely free two day conference for Open Source Developers, and we're very excited to be attending. The schedule is absolutely huge, featuring tracks such as Cloud Computing, Web Frameworks, Web Browsing, and Office; but what we're really looking forward to is the "devrooms", which include some of our favourite technologies here at Nestoria: Perl, MySQL, Virtualization, and GNU/Linux.
I am even giving a talk in the Perl devroom on Sunday at 12:50, entitled "Introduction to writing readable and maintainable Perl." I hope to get a good mix of Perl hackers and non-Perl people so I can try my hand at presenting, teaching, and a bit of Perl evangelising/marketing. I love Perl and think I'll be spending a lot of Sunday in the Perl devroom, if you're going to be there please come say hello!
