Day One of the YAPC Europe Conference in Lisbon has been interesting for me and for the Enlightened Perl Organisation.
First off we are going to be approached by Edmund to take over the organisational aspects of the Send-a-Newbie program.
Secondly Ovid asked me to come along to the BOFF on Marketting Perl.
Thirdly I got a great idea for the Italian YAPC::EU::2010 organisers that I may have to grab them for :) But more on that if it happens.
The end of the day saw the next big thing for me as Leon sort-of, rather easily, persuaded me to organise the LPW once again – as usual lots of help has already been offered by Leon, Dave Cross et al., and we have a theme that I will be announcing sometime soon…
That’s it for day one – must hide during day two.

Oh some pictures to close with:
