<P>
In the previous articles, <A name="index_17_118"></A>PerlPoint was mentioned as the format of choice to write abstracts and bios. But how to write PerlPoint?
</P>
<P>
In short, PerlPoint is like Perl: it is easy to start with and to do simple tasks, but possible to do really complex tasks as well, after passing a learning curve. But again, even this isn't really difficult. PerlPoint was designed to be intuitive.
</P>
<P>
To introduce the basics, and to demonstrate how speaker provided stuff besides abstract and bio is intergrated into the CD, I add an HTML version of the PerlPoint intro that comes with <A name="index_17_119"></A><CODE><A HREF="http://search.cpan.org/dist/PerlPoint-Package" target="_blank">PerlPoint::Package</A></CODE>.
