YAPC::Asia 2009 is brought to you by Japan Perl Association, and will take place Sep 10-11, 2009 in Tokyo, JAPAN. The venue will be Tokyo Institute of Technology.
Courses are available! Learn about Moose, Scalability with DBIx::Class and MySQL, and Perl/Unicode/Ajax!
If you have never signed up for YAPC via Act, please do so here. Otherwise, you can simply use your regular Act account to signin.
We've uploaded photos from YAPC::Asia Tokyo 2009 on ficia.com, a new photo-sharing service by etolabo.com. Incidentally, three of our YAPC speakers are from etolabo.com!
You can find the pictures here: http://yapcasia2009.ficia.com. Please contact info at perlassociation.org if you have any problems with the uploaded pictures.
Thanks for all those who came to YAPC::Asia Tokyo 2009! There were a few things we could have done better, but overall, I believe the outcome was excellent. I see a bunch of positive blog entries about it.
The videos of the sessions are currently being edited, hopefully we can do something about them by the end of September.
Meanwhile, if you haven't done so, please fill our questionnaire
Please take a little time to fill out our questionnaire! http://tinyurl.com/yapcasia2009q
Since I can't post on twitter, here's today's LT list:
If you are a member of the press, you are welcome to attend YAPC::Asia Tokyo 2009.
Please send an email to info at perlassociation dot org by 9/7 (JST), with the subject "Press attendance", followed by your media name, and list the company name, division and the names of the people who would like to attend (please limit the number to about 2 people per media)
You also need to bring a business card on the day of the conference. This will be your ticket to enter YAPC.
We will be reserving some seats and some power taps for press. Come and enjoy YAPC !
Booking.com, one of the most influential Perl shops around today, has decided to sponsor YAPC::Asia Tokyo 2009. They will also be giving a talk on 9/10 about what they do and how they use Perl. If you're interested in working with a major Perl shop abroad, you might want to check them out.
Also, ContentsOne, who I met at LLTV, has graciously offered to sponsor us as well. They might give you non-Perl novelties, but don't be rude ;)
Since there aren't that many places to eat around the YAPC::Asia Tokyo 2009 venue, we will be providing a light lunch (sandwiches) for both 9/10 and 9/11, free of charge.
We have vegetarian sandwiches, too!
