Next year, the UKUUG Spring Conference (aka Large Installation Systems Administration (LISA) Conference) will be returning to Birmingham. Birmingham Perl Mongers will be lending their support and experience to the organisers, together with the Python West Midlands user group and several of the midlands Linux User Groups. The conference will focus on dynamic languages, with several topics up for discussion.
If you wish to submit a paper, the Call for Papers is out with a submission deadline of 16th November 2007. Send a title, summary and decription to spring2008@ukuug.org, and you'll be contacted by 30th November 2007 as to whether your talk is accepted or not.
The conference will be followed by the 2-day E-Mail Systems Conference 2008, with the possibility of something Perl specific happening the weekend before, if you wanted to plan a longer stay in Birmingham. Visit the UKUUG Spring 2008 Conference website for more details on the conference itself and I will announce more as it becomes available.
I personally would be delighted to see a notable number of Perl talks and tutorials, so if you're in the UK around the end of March and would be willing to head to Birmingham for the week, please consider submitting a talk. Hope to see you there.
