The entire Perl track was worth it. Damian, Damian. Lightning talks were entertaining.

The Lessing keynote was inspiring. Some of this stuff I knew, but I wasn't up on the current political fights. I've recently heard RMS speak, so nothing surprising there. He seemed low key; maybe he likes us?

They replayed the YAPC movie again. While it gives me a good laugh, I'm not sure it is appropriate. It really emphasises the male-dominated computer culture. Maybe it's okay, given that it represents the fun creative nature of our community.

Wished I could have made the Jabber BOF. :(
