I have launched the [0]yapc.tv website, which is intended to collect
videos from Perl events we all organize.

I am not quite sure what will it be in a month of a year, but currently I
am (very slowly) adding videos that were made at YAPC::Europe 2008 in
Copenhagen, starting from lightning talks.

There are some ideas how to make video recodings more cool (all current
ones suck in different aspects). I am going to implement one brilliant
idea at Italian Perl Workshop in September if the organizers allow me do
that :-)

Special thanks to Henrik Tougaard, who had presented me a tripod to
replace one I forget at home.

By the way, perl.tv domain was already registered, but I find [0]yapc.tv
name very nice.

P. S. If anyone can offer of suggest hosting where I could freely put
large FLV files, please let me know. The problem is that foreign traffic
is free for me untill it is less than traffic which goes inside Russia.
Google, YouTube, Vimeo etc. are quite good but there I will not be able
to manipulate video transformations as I wish.

[0]moritz writes "In a [1]Series of blog posts I try to show how cool
Perl 6 really is, and why some of the design choices where made the way
they are now. The target audience are Perl 5 programmers.

It is build like a tutorial, but strongly emphasizes the "why".

So far the [2]Introduction, the [3]basic (strings, arrays, hashes) and
something about [4]types has been published, and the plan is to add one
article per day, for about the next two weeks.

You can help by providing feedback, and by suggesting further topics
(either here in the comments, or on #perl6 on irc.perl.org)"
