Hi there,
When I say India, I mean Indian
Subcontinent i.e. Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal,
Pakistan and Srilanka. Having said, my prime concern is
India right now. You must have realised the context of
Camel by now. Today I would like to talk about the
popularity of Perl in India. I remember
when I left India in 2000, it was on the
rise and that is how I got into Perl Programming. After
moving to England, I noticed how frequent the
Perl fans meetup and share ideas. I got the opportunity to
attend some and realised how it can boost the popularity of the language
and spread the positive word among newbies. Regular Perl
Mongers meet also keep the subject live and active.
Ever since the COVID happened, all these in-person events
stopped initially. But the good news is that we are getting back on track
with the events like The Perl and Raku Conference 2023 (
https://tprc.to/tprc-2023-tor ) and Perl and Koha Conference in Helsinki (
https://perlkohacon.fi ). I have decided to attend The Perl and
Raku Conference in Canada. I have submitted talk proposal too,
little late though. I am still waiting for the acceptance. The other
conference is clashing with my planned visit to India
unfortunately.
Going back to the main topic, I am wondering if we ever had any
Perl Conference in India. I am aware of active
Perl Mongers but never heard of their activities. In the
year 2021, Will Braswell reached out to
me with a proposal to do The Perl Conference in India.
Because of COVID, we put it on hold then. At the time, we
decided to do month long tour to cover major cities spending 2-3 days in
each city. I suggested the best time would be August as I
will have long summer break. We would definitely need sponsors, ideally if
we do under the banner of The Perl Foundation then the
reach would be even greater, in my humble opinion. The local Perl
Mongers group can be handy in organising the event. I would be
eager to know if any Perl Mongers group interested in
these events. I would expect the groups down south would be more active as
they are highly aware of technologies in general.
I just realised this is my 130th edition of the weekly
newsletter. I also completed 5 years as co-editor of the
weekly newsletter in this month.
Enjoy the rest of the newsletter. Please do share your ideas and
suggestions.

Hi there,
When I say India, I mean Indian
Subcontinent i.e. Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal,
Pakistan and Srilanka. Having said, my prime concern is
India right now. You must have realised the context of
Camel by now. Today I would like to talk about the
popularity of Perl in India. I remember
when I left India in 2000, it was on the
rise and that is how I got into Perl Programming. After
moving to England, I noticed how frequent the
Perl fans meetup and share ideas. I got the opportunity to
attend some and realised how it can boost the popularity of the language
and spread the positive word among newbies. Regular Perl
Mongers meet also keep the subject live and active.
Ever since the COVID happened, all these in-person events
stopped initially. But the good news is that we are getting back on track
with the events like The Perl and Raku Conference 2023 (
https://tprc.to/tprc-2023-tor ) and Perl and Koha Conference in Helsinki (
https://perlkohacon.fi ). I have decided to attend The Perl and
Raku Conference in Canada. I have submitted talk proposal too,
little late though. I am still waiting for the acceptance. The other
conference is clashing with my planned visit to India
unfortunately.
Going back to the main topic, I am wondering if we ever had any
Perl Conference in India. I am aware of active
Perl Mongers but never heard of their activities. In the
year 2021, Will Braswell reached out to
me with a proposal to do The Perl Conference in India.
Because of COVID, we put it on hold then. At the time, we
decided to do month long tour to cover major cities spending 2-3 days in
each city. I suggested the best time would be August as I
will have long summer break. We would definitely need sponsors, ideally if
we do under the banner of The Perl Foundation then the
reach would be even greater, in my humble opinion. The local Perl
Mongers group can be handy in organising the event. I would be
eager to know if any Perl Mongers group interested in
these events. I would expect the groups down south would be more active as
they are highly aware of technologies in general.
I just realised this is my 130th edition of the weekly
newsletter. I also completed 5 years as co-editor of the
weekly newsletter in this month.
Enjoy the rest of the newsletter. Please do share your ideas and
suggestions.
