YAPC::Europe 2013 “Future Perl”

Day minus 3. Hot in the city

Dear YAPC::Europe attendees,

The conference is almost here!

Those of you who are already in Kiev might have noticed that it's really hot here these days. It was +31 ˚C at 8 p.m. Imagine what happened in the midday.

Having this fact in mind, we checked once again if the air conditioning in the venue works well. We were assured it does.

But that's not all. We ordered three coolers and thus we will have drinking water throughout the day, you don't have to wait until the next coffee break or lunch.

Also, we (once again, for the third time now) increased the order for the river cruise to include more refreshing drinks.

From other stuff, we've seen a lot of work has been doing in the conference rooms to install chairs and provide us with enough AC sockets. The restaurant has their forks ready :-)

Today we received a few boxes with the conference T-shirts. The funny thing, the Perl 7 ones were laying on top of one of the boxes :-)

If you are coming to the Perl 6 hackathon, take a time to read the wiki page about it.

Finally, we'd like to thank our new Silver Sponsor, uCoz! It is a good example showing that it is never late to support a Perl event.
