Join a team and enter “Plat_Forms”….. entry deadline 7th September 2012.

“Plat_Forms” is a contest and competition in which top-class teams of three programmers compete to implement the same requirements for a web-based system within two days, using different technology platforms (e.g. Perl, Java, .NET, PHP, etc).

Perl needs teams and sponsorships to make this happen.

A team has 3 people. We can register a maximum of 4 teams.

Torsten Raudssus (Getty) is organizing the teams and the sponsorship this year, please email him getty@cpan.org or join the IRC channel #Plat_Forms on irc.perl.org
