Next year the YAPC::EU will take place in Granada (Spain) in early September, as you already probably know by now.

The organization team members are currently from Granada.pm, Madrid.pm and Barcelona.pm, but we'd like to invite the Cloud Orga team that worked so well this year to get involved too. We plan to keep on using #yapceu channel on irc.perl.org for contact and co-ordination, bu…

Loved YAPC::EU::2014? Hated it? Perhaps the conference would have been perfect if only we'd done X? What was your favourite talk? Could some talks have been improved?

You should have received an email from Barbie with an invitation to complete the YAPC::Europe 2014 Survey:

As an attendee of YAPC::Europe 2014, we would like to invite you to participate in the online conference surveys. Whether you are an attendee, speaker or sponsor, we would like to get your feedback regarding any talks and tutorials you attend, as well as the conference itself, with the aim of he…

We are hoping to live stream the conference which starts on Friday morning. We will have streams of all three tracks:

Hall Vitosha

We are still accepting proposals for Lightning Talks and will continue to do so until a week before the conference. We will be having a Lightning Talk session, which will have about 10 Lightning Talks of 5 minutes, towards the end of each conference day.

It will be possible to submit a Lightning Talk proposal during the conference as at least two speaking spots on days 2 and 3 will be held open until the day before the talks to give you a chance to see something at the conference and put together a Lightning Talk response. As there will be fewer spots available during the conference…

Here are some details on our keynote speakers, who will close off each day of the conference in the main auditorium.
