SUMMARY:Barely Legal XXX Perl
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jos Boumans (RIPE NCC). "Barely Legal XXX Perl"
  shows several features of Perl you might not have known that existed, t
 hat are being (ab)used to run a program that was designed never to be ab
 le to run in the first place... It's a high paced, humourous, and entert
 aining look at Perl's slightly less obvious features.

SUMMARY:Art of Community Lightning Talks
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dawn Foster (Fast Wonder Consulting), Danese Co
 oper (Open Source Initiative and REvolution Computing), Allison Randal (
 O'Reilly Media, Inc.), Audrey Eschright (Elevated Rails), Sulamita Garci
 a (Intel), Nnenna Nwakanma (OSI, nnenna.org), Stormy Peters (GNOME Found
 ation), Silona Bonewald (League Of Technical Voters), Erinn Clark (.), Z
 aheda Bhorat (self). Given the open source movement, the popularity of s
 ocial networks, and new tools for collaboration, more people are looking
  for ways to build community. The Art of Community came about because we
  wanted to write a book about community using a wiki so that a community
  could grow around the book. A different author leads each chapter, and 
 you will hear from many of them during these lightning talks.

SUMMARY:Load Testing Using Perl
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Homer Hummel (Computer Sciences Corporation). P
 erl is utilitarian.  A flexible, scalable, cost-effective framework for 
 load testing application servers has been developed using Perl scripts. 
  This framework is ideal for load testing servers for which a commercial
  test tool is either unavailable or prohibitively expensive.  Load scrip
 ts may be easily written using a Perl script template and functions of o
 ne of the many clients on CPAN.
