The PCC in July is Remote and Budget Friendly!

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.
