The [0]Portuguese Perl Workshop is quickly approaching. The workshop
itself is June 6-7, but I'm also giving Stonehenge's "Intermediate Perl"
master class on June 4-5. The master class format is a two-day, low-cost
format that allows the trainer to attend the the conference. For the
Portuguese Perl Workshop, the two day class includes the workshop
registration fee and costs €200. Students get a special price of €100.
You can register for the class at the same time you [0]register for the
workshop.

I'm also still on the watch for people posting their own versions of
[1]"Why I am Passionate About Perl" for my keynote address.
