Hi folks,
LPW 2012 is soon upon us, in fact it's this very weekend, Saturday 24th. I'm looking for comments on why folks are (or indeed are not) attending:
Thanks!

    Well, two reasons really - it's a little far for me to travel there from New Zealand, and I'll be in a fairly remote part of Fiordland in any case.

    However, best wishes for a great event!

    True laziness is hard work

    I've attended the last 2 years but will not be this year. The main reason is I left it too late and now the transport and accomodation are going to be too expensive. For some reason I forgot it is usually in November but I did not see anything about it to remind me until recently.

    The fact that I am already over 1000 emails behind on the perl5-porters mailing list shows that I am way too busy with $work …

    So, lack of time, not lack of tuits. If my boss agrees, I'd like to come next year.


    Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

    Actually I thought about coming, but I'm still too exhausted from last YAPC. :-/

    Next year for sure, since I can use my cousins house in London as a base! =)

    But I have to admit that a summer date would be more attractive ...

    Cheers Rolf
