All the yapc 19100 speakers are supposed to have turned in their materials for the proceedings by now. And those who haven't are likely very bad people.
Some company who has been mentioned perhaps far too much on this site already is sponsoring the Perl Power Contest at yapc, where contestants write innovative programs using ActivePerl 5.6 (or if unavailable for your platform, regular ol' perl 5.6.0). Deadline for entries is midnight Pacific time, June 19.
Not to be outdone, a company that is going to be my employer in the next day or two has donated a Pentium III with Red Hat 6.2 preinstalled for a Perl Mongers raffle at yapc, with all proceeds going to Perl Mongers and funding of Perl advocacy.
Kevin Lenzo, the courageous soul behind all this wonder that is yapc, notes that Yet Another Society is being formed as a non-profit organization to be the parent for yapc. One of the first steps will be to get nominations for a board during yapc, and then to get the board together and draw up a charter.
Lenzo has put up the tentative yapc schedule. McConomy is the big auditorium; Rangos I, II, and III are as last year.
