    I don't know if I should do this, but.... Here is the frontispiece to Nat Torkington's YAPC 2002 Movie, available in several formats for your viewing pleasure.

    Don't click on this at work1 -- the R rating is an understatement.

    Ever wonder what the TheDamian sounds like? Or how to pronounce "Hietaniemi", er, Hitanami, er, Hita... Jarkko's last name? Or what Elian looks like? Here's your chance to find out.

    1Well, I suppose it would be OK, depending on where you work....

      lmfao rotfl etc

      But there are still people in the world who have to survive with 56k modems or worse. For those poor people, who wants this on a CD, please message me your RL address amd pay a random amount to my paypal account (clive@brandx.net) and I'll send you a CD with the 44Mb mov on.

      Limit - one per customer, one per week (so you may have to wait a while :)

      cLive ;-)

      I'm so proud of myself that I was able to laugh while watching this.... :)

      ... and fsck me for not being able to be there, at my almar mater, out of all places.

    Hmmm. The resolution isn't quite high enough to read nametags. Anyone want to supply a who's-who?

      In a recent email to the Seattle Perl Users Group mailing list, Tim Maher, lord high pooh-bah of SPUG provides the following:

      In order of appearance, the actors are: Jon Orwant, Casey West, Abigail, Elaine Ashton, Jarkko Hietaniemi, Dan Sugalski, Michael Schwern, Simon Cozens, Uri Guttman, Damian Conway, Larry Wall, Mark-Jason Dominus, Nat Torkington, and then Uri again.

      Update samtregar is correct. This refers to Nat Torkington's YAPC 2002 Movie reported above by VSarkiss. I responded to the wrong node.

        Wait, you're saying Uri appears twice in the picture above? That's amazing? Did he use mirrors?

        (I bet you meant the video, huh?)

        -sam

      This one has some of the nicks. Saddly my memory is really bad when it comes to names, so I don't have them all. If you are on the picture and your nick is not there, please let me know and I will update it.

      Thanks

    Back Row: Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Eric andreychek, unknown, kudra, talexb, Erudil, jlawrenc, Abigail-II

    Front Row: mirod, Unknown x 4, yumpy the guy who rounded up the auction results to $4K and advertises a Perl course on this site.

    Eric's wife probably took pictures alongside this one -- she was there (when Eric remembered her), attending seminars as well. kudra's fiance Jos was also around, giving one seminar that I saw on POE which was most enlightening.

    Update: After submitting this node, I clicked on the link to see the photo of the web site owner with with their friend Nick, only to find it was the same YAPC photo, but with people's nicknames. Sorry, that was a waste of electrons.

    Update 2:: Corrected the spelling of andreychek.
