The Swiss Raku and Perl Miniconf 2020 Will Not Take Place

Hello from the Swiss Alps, where we have been working from home and avoiding all but essential trips out like so many others over the last few months.

The current situation has led to the cancellation of several community events, including this year's main Raku and Perl conferences in North American and Europe. We have been following the situation closely in Switzerland, and have also decided not to go ahead with our event this year.

We will be following the news, recommendations, and restrictions from ="https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/en/home/krankheiten/ausbrueche-epidem…
