Please contact oscon-auction@dyndns.org to offer your items. We'll get everything we can signed by as many Perl luminaries as possible, so bring us your shirts, books, etc. All proceeds from the auction will go directly to The Perl Foundation."

Hey, don't be resellin' the goods honey!
:) I bought him fair and square and I expect he'll be busy until he gets CPANTS done...unless, of course, you really want to sell him to Uri :) I think there are enough perl guys to sell off before trying to auction Leon again.

How well would a Leon, signed by the members of the Perl 6 Design Team who are present PLUS an ORA t-shirt, sell? I could throw in a state-of-Kansas Jell-O mold.
Yeah, I couldn't sleep and stayed up watching late-night TV. How did you know?

Yeah, but I was the one who bought it. That won't necessarily work so well this time!:) Re:Hmm...

So, sign it yourself, get the rest of the Perl 6 Design team (well, those who are at OSCON) to sign it too, and donate it to the auction.Re:Hmm...

I can see it now. That "C# Essentials" book will become like fruit cake during the holidays: The same book will be sold over and over again, year after year. Maybe the buyer can immediately give it back each time and it can be sold several times in a single auction!
