The CFP is closed, but in order to attend the PCC virtually, please follow this link, https://www.meetup.com/austin-perl-mongers/events/305855419/.
We are asking for a $30 donation at sign-up, but you may email science@perlcommunity.org to inquire about a discounted or free code we have for non-profits and those in between jobs.
To sign up for our low-volume email list to get information about upcoming events, click here.
Paper and talk submissions will be accepted until July 01, 2025 18:59 CDT
In particular I'd like to invite anyone who regrets not submitting a talk to the TPRC or who has gotten bit by the speaking bug. You are welcome to give your talk remotely.
Hi, you my have noticed our "ad" showing up on on metacpan.org - many thanks to David Cross for helping us out there! You may have to hit "refresh" a few times to see it (but not too many, please! xD)
Now, as much as we'd love to see everyone in Austin, TX on July 3-4, and it's sure to be a lot of fun, the PCC is a hybrid event, meaning we do permit remote attendees and worthy talks.
We already have many exciting and highly technical Perl talks. But we are selfish and we want more. It is okay if you even repeat a talk you've given elsewhere. We offer several levels of talks, including lightning talks, which we all know is how most of us got started. Do not be afraid! :-)
Especially if you were not able to make any of the recent conferences since the last PCC in December, consider signing up to participate - we are still very much looking for speakers.
There are regular a talks, but the extremely successful Science Perl Track has moved from the TPRC to the PCC this year. We do have room for "regular" talks. The conference is also "free" - but we do appreciate some donations!
Please feel free to reach out to me if there are any questions, SPJs are still for sale, please see https://science.perlcommunity.org/spj for more information.

This is a hybrid (in-person and virtual) conference being held in Austin, TX on July 3rd-4th.
Did you miss your chance to speak or have wish to speak at the only available Perl Science Track (and get published in the Science Perl Journal)? Or maybe you just can't get enough Perl this summer??? Submit here ... or get more information on the PCC, including registration, special event registration, and donation links click here. For questions you may email us at science@perlcommunity.org or find us in the Perl Applications & Algorithms discord server.
The following lengths will be accepted for publication and presentation:
You may ask, where is the Winter SPJ or videos? We are working on them, promise! (it's a lot of work as some of you know. See also on Perlmonks and r/perlcommunity.
Next PCC: July 3-4, 2025 in Austin, Texas USA
See entire the post to learn about our future plans, in perpetuity.
The very first Perl Community Conference was a tremendous success thanks to everyone of you authors and speakers. Many thanks to PCC Co-Organizer Will "The Chill" Braswell, our friends at the Diogenes Hackerspace (in Austin, Texas), and all the participants both online and in person! We'll be following up soon about posting the videos. The next stage will be editing and publishing Issue #2 of the Science Perl Journal. The schedule from the Winter'24 PCC should be a clue about some of its contents. We have discussed offering a "Letters to the Editor" section to address feedback from friends and foes alike. More on this will be announced in future posts.
Future Plans in Perpetuity
Please mark your calendars for both July 3rd/4th (USA's birthday) and December 17th/18th (Perl's birthday), starting in 2025 and going forward every year from now on. Our current plan is to continue meeting in Austin until further notice, as it is a central location and we already have all of the conference equipment there.
As you can see from the dates above, we are expanding to a 2-day format starting with our upcoming PCC Summer 2025, which will begin on July 3rd and run through July 4th, finishing in time for people to get home for fireworks if they so choose. Likewise, we will start our PCC Winter 2025 one day early on December 17th and run through December 18th, giving people enough time to get home for their Christmas holiday travel plans etc.
The 2-day format will give us an opportunity to have more talks, as well as more extra-curricular activities. We want to offer things like Perl job fairs, Perl code hackathons, Perl training courses, and also official group activities on the evenings of July 3rd and December 17th, such as a lake cruise or live theater or dinner-and-a-show etc.
So, please set a permanent annual reminder in your calendar now, repeating every July 3-4 and Dec 17-18 - forever. It is safe to assume the location will be Austin, Tx indefinitely. Together we will put Perl back on top!
