Just been to my first talk at YAPC::Europe - Skud's presentation of e-smith (http://www.e-smith.org)
Excellent little product, not too technical a presentation (Skud kept asking if anyone had any perl questions) and definitely worth a check out.
A quick break (for me anyway) now follows and then I'm off to Ingy's Polluting Perl talk... I might not understand much of it but Brian is a very entertaining speaker.
Sitting in the canteen you can hear the laughter and applause from the lightning talks in the O'Reilly Room. Probably a good sign.
