mad-p writes "The long awaited YAPC::Japan 19100 lost its chance in the year 2000. This is partly because the official Perl Conference came up in December in Kyoto.

Now YAPC::Japan 19100 has been reborn as "YARPC 19101" which stands for "Yet Another Ruby/Perl Conference 19101". The conference features the Ruby language, too. The order of Ruby and Perl alternates by conference. (We had Perl first in Kyoto.)

This one-day conference will be held on May 26th in Tokyo. See http://yarpc.tokyo.pm.org/ for more information. I apologize we don't prepare the pages in English."

Stay tuned for more information about Yet Another Parrot Conference. :-)

Update: 04/17 17:55 PM GMT by P : YARPC is not affiliated with Yet Another Society.
