On behalf of The Perl Foundation, Houston.pm is officially announcing the call for participation for Yet Another Perl Conference North America 2007. The conference will be held in Houston, Texas, June 25 - 27 at the University of Houston.

We are looking for presentations that current (or future) Perl programmers would enjoy. Talks aimed at veteran Perl programmers, beginners, or anyone in between are all welcome.

Presentation slots will be 20 (standard), 50, and 80 minutes. As always, Lightning Talks will be presented on the last day of the conference, but the call for these will be announced as we get closer to the conference date.

At this time, we are accepting presentation abstracts via e-mail (abstracts-na at yapc.org). Once the ACT-hosted site goes live, you will be able to submit via the website (or e-mail if you'd like). Please include a title, expected talk time, and any special presentation requirements with your abstract. All rooms will have a projector and a microphone.

Upon submission, you should receive a confirmation within a week. If not, please resubmit. If you encounter any problems or have any questions, please feel free to contact us at help-na at yapc.org. Authors of accepted presentations will be contacted via email by April 25th.

See official posting at the YAPC::NA site.
