[Catalyst] Fwd: Call for Papers Opens for ApacheCon Europe 2006

[Andrew Ford]

I saw this as I was on my way out to the Birmingham.pm meeting last 
night and was thinking about submitting a proposal for a session 
myself.  If noone more experienced wants to do this then I would be 
happy to dot it.  I need to work out what exactly to cover -- probably a 
rapid introduction with some demos, general advocacy for Catalyst, Perl 
and CPAN generally followed by examples of some of the more cool 
features -- but there is plenty of time to prepare and hone a good 
talk.   I could try out the talk at the next pm meeting in March and 
also give it at YAPC::Europe, which of course is going to be hosted by 
Birmingham.pm this year.
