Perl Oasis and LPW2011 Videos: Some Personal Recommendations
In the previous three weeks it has been a pleasure to be able to finally get both the videos for the London Perl Workshop 2011 and the 2012 Perl Oasis videos up on Presenting Perl for the enjoyment of a wider audience.
It is at this point that I can hold out a few interesting videos for people to look for.
Once again I ended my year by editing and uploading the videos from a London Perl Workshop and the videos are live on Presenting Perl. And as last year the curse of doing this is following me around. There was a big glitch in grammar for which I alone must take blame, but I am [...]

Reflection, part one So I am speeding through the misty, and drizzly, English countryside aboard a Virgin Pendilino train heading towards London and my fourth stint as the organiser of the London Perl Workshop (The United Kingdom Perl Workshop).

Synopsis There is a bit of confusion circling the wires as to where and when the need to refer to Perl 5 as a “Raptor” or more correctly a “Velociraptor” originated. Also people wish to know: Why name it? Why use this? Whose idea was this? This article will attempt to relieve you from the [...]

The madness, joy, late nights and last minute panic of the London Perl Workshop is over again for another year and I thought I would take the time to do a quick report on the day as a whole. Hopefully I can cover the majority of the task we faced and some of the decisions [...]
Each year that I organise the London Perl Workshop I am astonished by the encouragement and support I obtain from the Sponsors of the event. This year there were even more sponsors who came forward willing and keen to become involved. So with no further pause allow me to introduce you to these great people. [...]
