DESCRIPTION:As a part of the development strategy Module::Build has been ch
 osen as the \npreferred build\, test and deployment system by the speaker.
 \n\nHaving used Module::Build for a few CPAN modules and finding out how e
 asy it\nwas to extend - experiments where begun to see how well it scaled 
 and the\nexperiment has been nothing but a success.\n\nModule::Build lets 
 you tweak where it is necessary without having to send \npatches to its au
 thor. \n\n\nModule::Build is now used as Build\, Test\, Configuration and 
 Deployment system\nfor everything from module size and up.\n\nThe presenta
 tion will go over the general use of Module::Build and how to extendit wit
 h practical and real-life examples taken from current project from the \ns
 peakers portfolio.\n\n- Extending Module::Build being the the standard\n	-
  subclassing\n	- overloading\n\n- Influencing build proces behaviour\n	- a
 rguments and omnipresence\n\n- A few hacks and other small things\n\nThe p
 resentation will not be a walk through of the Module::Build source\, since
  \nthe speaker is not its author\, but will be an introduction to use of \
 nModule::Build and extending Module::Build still using the standard Module
 ::Build.

DESCRIPTION:PPI\, or Parse::Perl::Isolated as it stood for\, is a parser fo
 r Perl source that builds a DOM-representation of your code.\n\nWith PPI n
 ow in place\, development of applications that needs to understand and wor
 k with source code has been made much simplier than before. Some examples 
 are CPANXR\, Module::Checkstyle\, Perl::Critic and Perl::MinimumVersion.\n
 \nThis talk will cover how to work with PPI and some of the modules that i
 s using it.

DESCRIPTION:Everybody loves to hate character sets. \n\nPeople who see the 
 world through rose tinted glasses you might say that charset problems are 
 a thing of the past. After all these days we can just use Unicode everywhe
 re.\n\nFor the rest of us\, however. Charset problems still exist. Odd cha
 rsets and old codepages keep turning up in real data. And when they do the
 y cause real problems.\n\nLuckily Perl has given us as powerful set of too
 ls to overcome these problems.

 r many\npeople who need to work without a constant connection to a master\
 nrepository\, to track and painlessly merge between multiple lines of\ndev
 elopment\, and to transparently branch others' projects.\n\nsvk uses Subve
 rsion storage and servers natively\, so if your\norganization is already u
 sing Subversion you won't need to deploy any\nnew infrastructure\, and use
 rs can freely switch between svk and other\nsubversion clients.\n\nThe tal
 k will demostrate daily development process with svk in\ndifferent scenari
 os to show how complicated tasks can be streamlined.\nIt will also discuss
  the design and the future of svk.

DESCRIPTION:Perl's Class::DBI module makes it really easy and convenient to
  treat database tables as classes and rows as objects.\n\nI will show how 
 Class::DBI builds on top of Perl's standard DBI database interface\, and i
 n turn on top of the Ima::DBI abstraction layer.  Finally\, I show how Tem
 plate::Plugin::Class lets you report on databases without writing any Perl
  code.\n\nThis talk is aimed at people who have some experience of Perl an
 d databases\, but want to discover interesting\, efficient approaches for 
 doing more with less code.

DESCRIPTION:Whilst some Web site owners have opened up their information\, 
 either through REST or SOAP interfaces\, many have not. Screen scraping re
 mains the only viable approach to gather information from such Web sites.\
 n\nMy talk will explore how Perl\, WWW::Mechanize and XPath can make gathe
 ring information from such sites easier and more robust\, even when workin
 g with badly formed HTML. I will compare the XPath approach to the more co
 mmonly used tokenising technique used by HTML::Parser.\n\nI will also disc
 uss other tools that help developers gather information from sites lacking
  public interfaces and how to use these tools to write simple\, flexible P
 erl code.

DESCRIPTION:Catalyst is a new MVC framework for Perl. It has been under rap
 id development\, but the core API is now stable\, and a growing number of 
 projects use it. Catalyst borrows from other frameworks\, such as Ruby on 
 Rails and Apache Struts\, but its main goal is to be a flexible\, powerful
 \, and fast framework for developing any type of web project in Perl. \n\n
 In this introduction we will go through the most important features of Cat
 alyst\, then proceed to make a simple application.

DESCRIPTION:What's faster than C++\, more concise than Perl\, more regular 
 than Python\, more flexible than Ruby\, more typeful than C#\, more robust
  than Java\, and has absolutely nothing in common with PHP? It's Haskell!\
 n\nTired of writing unit tests to cover corner cases? Let the computer wri
 te it for you with QuickCheck. Find regex-based parsing unmaintainable? Le
 arn how to write a complete parser for Perl 6's grammar in 15 minutes with
  Parsec. Stuck in deadlocks and race conditions? STM solves all your concu
 rrency woes. XS and SWIG gives you headaches? FFI lets you embed C code qu
 ickly and safely.\n\nHaskell is an emerging general-purpose functional lan
 guage\, with unique features that enable extremely rapid development of bu
 g-free\, concise\, and maintainable code. This talk shows how to apply Has
 kell to day-to-day tasks\, tips for integrating it with other languages\, 
 and secrets for boosting your productivity by an order of magnitude.
