I've put together a [0]video from several members of the Perl community
giving the YAPC::EU committee 10 reasons YAPC::EU 2009 should be in
Lisbon. These aren't the sort of things that they'll find in the
proposal, but I hope they'll consider it when they vote!

[0]Artur Bergman discusses Perl on Google's App Engine, while [1]Brad
Fitzpatrick announced Perl on App Engine. The important information is
that Google will support the project only if the Perl community does most
of the hard work. (This position seems reasonable to me; gift horses and
all that.)
