Hi there

as I was preparing this edition of the Perl Weekly I suddenly realized that I've hardly heard any news about Perl Conferences and Workshops in 2017.

The only event I found on the YEF page, my usual source, was YAPC Europe August 9 - 11, 2017 Amsterdam, Netherlands.

After some search I've found the French Perl Workshop June 9-10, 2017, Paris, France and The Perl Conference (that used to be YAPC::NA) which will take place June 18-23, 2017, Washington DC, USA.

Are there other Perl Conferences or Workshops being organized? Let us know and we can help to get the word out!

Enjoy your week!
