| YAPC::Hawaii? |

I've been dreaming (with a couple of folks like clkao) about having a
YAPC in Hawaii. Hawaii is a great place for everyone to come, from the
west/mid coast of USA, East Asia (Japan, Taiwan) and Oceania (Australia,
NZ). It's gonna be a great place for attendees to bring their spouses and
SOs. The conference would begin early morning and should finish like 3pm
so we can get to the beach.
Since Hawaii is not part of the North America continent, it shouldn't be
YAPC::NA. YAPC::Pacific.
I don't know where to start. Is there a Perl monger in Hawaii?
[0]Hawaii.pm.org is there but the site seems way outdated.

Alex Gough, Perl hacker^W researcher in [0]Halley Research Station in
Antartica, [1]writes about hacking Perl:
It also probably makes Perl the only programming language to have
been developed on all seven continents.
I follow his blog as we hacked on ICFPC a few years ago. I like his
[2]penguin photos too.

Now that some of us have [0]added our Gravatars to CPAN I thought it'd be
fun (and perhaps a little scary) to collect all the available mugshots in
one place.
[1]The Faces of CPAN
We're disappointingly white and male - but who knew how damn fine we'd
look as a group? Somebody should organise a naked calendar photo shoot
next. People would pay lots of money not to see that.
