[WsInfo] Re: [Frankfurt.pm] Perl 6 hackathon or Perl 6 training ? on the weekend after GPW 2009?

[Gabor Szabo]

Just to clarify things

I won't charge anything for this, I am not *that* greedy :-)
It costs whatever expenses we might have (room ?, projector ? - if needed,
I hope none of the above, food - whatever you eat)
Actually I'd like to offer a free beer (or other similar beverage) to
anyone who participates.
Just to disprove RMS, there will be *free beer*.

On the other don't expect a ready made training.
My material is very much in work in progress and lots of issues have
not been addressed yet.
Its more like you help me improve it.

And another comment: I don't plan to hack on Rakudo or on Parrot, my focus
purely is the Perl 6 language in its current state.
