so, no one besides Slava and Perrin is interested in the feedback on this
list? Or is it because no one plans to submit anything? So far we have
just a few mod_perl proposals submitted, whereas the Java and the PHP
tracks have already about 3 times more proposals each.
The deadline is Feb 13... there is not much time left...
also remember that if there will be not enough mod_perl proposals the
mod_perl track won't happen, and next year it might not be offered again.

Thanks Perrin and Nicholas,
It was my fault, now the proposal is submitted and confirmed OK.

I've submitted my proposal, but it looks like there is no way to verify
whether it arrives to destination or not. Website does not indicate
anything, and there are no email notification even... Looks odd for me.
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Slava

As I've mentioned, both matching and non-matching the theme talks can be
submitted. I don't know at the moment how many slots the mod_perl track
will be given. So assuming that we get enough, talks from both groups
should make it in. So certainly give it a try.

I would be more than happy to put together a talk on the benefits of
utilizing inherited method handlers under mod_perl and how it can help
to speed up application development. However, I don't know if this would
fit into the stated theme this year.
So I guess the question is should I put some notes together and submit
the proposal or is it too far outside of the theme this year?

I guess most of those who have submitted a proposal have now received
'While your proposal was considered closely, we are not able to include it
in the program this year.'
Unfortunately mod_perl not only didn't get its own track, there were
hardly any slots available for any perl talks. Blame Java, Linux, Python
and PHP who have eaten the lion part of available slots. For good and for
bad OSCon is getting less and less about Perl and more and more about
other technologies.
Just to give you some stats, the Perl track had 100+ sessions and about 30
tutorials proposals submitted. The final given slots were for 16 sessions,
4 tutorials. You get the idea. I wish I was told at the beginning that
that would be the case.
Still several mod_perl tutorials and sessions made it in, which I consider
a great priviledge, considering the insane competition. Some talks ended
up in the Apache track, others in the Perl track.
I see that the final program is not yet published at
http://conferences.oreillynet.com/os2005/. Hopefully it'll updated soon.
