German Perl Workshop: My Day 3

Again a lovely bike ride to the venue, this time with some air pressure trouble in the front wheel. Then a great day with talks, chatting and again excellent food.

And then it was already over.

THANK YOU ORGANISERS!

German Perl Workshop: My Day 2

Today I was quite busy $working. I was a bit tired, too, because a group of young and cheerful boys and girls (possible future Perl hackers?) had their small hotel party on the floor outside my room. After a short bicycle ride (numerous places of interest again) I reached the Betahaus (many current Perl hackers).

Just because I was curious I took a peek at various fellow Perler's computers displays. Quite familiarly with hacker's displays there was lots of text; not a small amount white on black.
Today however I learned that there are people using light-blue to dark-blue on black as their favourite colour scheme. Like so:

German Perl Workshop: My Day 1

Yesterday evening I got onto the City Night Line and spent a most comfortable night in my small single cabin, sleeping to the soft rocking of the moving train.

After arriving in a freezing cold Berlin I rode my bike along Brandenburger Tor, Checkpoint Charly and a dozen other places of interest to the Betahaus where the Workshop takes place.

Thanks to the organisers, I immediately saw many signposts which guided me to the venue.

What I liked about YAPC::EU 2012

Disclaimer: This list is no ways complete. It does not mean that I didn't like what I forgot to mention. :-)

The Streuselkuchen. The coffee. The snacks. The drinks. THE ICECREAMS.

How the essential things worked like charm. The Germans are winners. :-) This is no news to the fans of the English Football Team. Thank you very much, organizers. (bow)

The lunch break in the city park.

Thanks for the Live Streams from YAPC::NA

I just wanted to say how grateful I am for the live streams broadcasting these days!
With the time shift to my place it allows me to drop into yapc::na after my workday and enjoy some talks.
This is definitely a very cool feature of the Perl community.

(I also would like to encourage everybody who watches and appreciates the live streams to drop a little thank-you note here.)
