Perl 6 and Perl 5 training classes around YAPC::EU in Pisa

Just a reminder that there are going to be a number of training courses on the days before and after YAPC::EU. (2,3 and 7 August).

The detailed list can be found on the web site of YAPC::Europe as linked above.

Trainers include Dave Cross, Dave Rolsky, Matt S. Trout , Herbert Breunung, brian d foy and myself. In order of appearance. Prices range between 150-220 Euro which are way lower than the prices these people normally charge when they do corporate training. It's a bargain.

Rakudo * and Perl 6

My main interest is of course the Perl 6 training I am going to teach. I want to making sure it gives something that is really interesting and worth the money.

The timing is good as Rakudo * (a "usable Perl 6") will be released on July 29, just a few days before YAPC::EU.

There are going to be several Perl 6 related talks in the regular schedule:

• Tim Bunce: Database Access in Perl 6 and Parrot
• Jonathan Worthington: Perl 6 Signatures: The Full Story
• Martin Berends: Perl 6 Database Interfacing
• Patrick Michaud: Not Quite Perl (NQP) - A lightweight Perl 6
• Patrick Michaud: Rakudo Star - A usable Perl 6 release
• Moritz Lenz: Perl 6 and The Real World

I'll try to make sure that on one hand people who attended these talk will not get the same material twice on the other hand those who don't attend the Perl 6 related talks will not miss anything. It will be an interesting exercise.

I am also happy that Patrick Michaud, the pumking and lead developer of Rakodo will also be in the class. As in previous occasions in Oslo and Lisbon I am sure it will be fun.
