Another attempt to collect a set of slides suitable to be used in Intro Talks during or before a Perl conference.

## I want to help!

We have set up a few issues, so you can grab one of them and "fix" it (currently this mostly means some research, or even just creating more issues..)

Please feel free to submit new issues.

If you found a nice slidedeck or authored one yourself, either send us a pull request or join to group to get direct access (a commit bit!)

## Repo structure

I prepared a few directories for a bit of structure:

* meta: documents, notes etc about this group and process
* talks: for regular talks (20 - 45 minutes)
* tutorials: for 2 - 4h long tutorials on a topic
* workshops: for interactive workshops with user participation

In each of those dirs, we should set up one directory that corresponds to a particular talk topic; within each of those there are one or more slide decks as well as a README file describing when each slide deck originated and the different times the corresponding talk has been delivered.

#Perl Intro Talks

Do you think this idea even makes sense?
Consensus: yes, but it’s difficult

Will this help attract newbies?
Consensus: It will help the newbies but it’s very hard to attract them.

Should an Intro-Block happen on the 0th day of the conference? Or during the proper conference?


* domm: I think 6 talks each 30 minutes would be a good format
* or have a workshop on the 0th day: \url{https://twitter.com/stommepoes/status/1235497728370589696}
Gefahren:

* "Perl-Kindergarten" evtl. nicht gutes Marketing
Erfahrungen von früheren/anderen Konferenzen/Fachgebieten:

* im Bibliothekbereich (ELAG, SWIB) gibt es Pre-Conf-Workshops, praktische WS, WS extra Buchbar (auch ohne Conf)
* London Perl Workshop: Beginner-Talks sehr schlecht besucht
* Raku-Workshop beim GPW2020: sehr guter Einstieg, aber keine Neulinge davon angezogen
Offene Fragen:

* Dauer des Events im Auge behalten.
* Zielgruppe / stakeholder, "zertifikat" ?Teilnahmebestätigung?
* Gezielt Firmen ansprechen die Perl verwenden – Auf welchem Weg? Welche? Mit welchen Argumenten?
* marketing um neulinge auf conf zu bringen
* Ziel und Zielgruppe definieren
Konkrete Ideen:

* Frühzeitig ankündigen
* Hackathon?
* alte vorträge durchforsten und recyclen; iterativ
* Zertifikat/Urkunde für Workshop-Teilnehmer
* Schwerpunktthemen "automatisierung/cloud/KI ... mit Perl"
* Andere Konferenzen besuchen und dort Beginner-Talks anbieten (nicht nur Perl, sondern konkretes kleines Projekt)

#Curriculum ideas

What topics should be in a curriclum?

What things would newbies want to know?

What do we as Perl devs want them to kow?

Intro Workshop vs Talks




#Perl and / or Raku

Do we need / want to multiply the efforts for Perl AND Raku?
