Announcing FOSSCamp 2008

I am proud to announce FOSSCamp 2008, to take place Friday 16 May and Saturday 17 May 2008 in Prague, Czech Republic. You can sign up here.

The aim of FOSSCamp is to provide a means for Open Source projects to get together to discuss and debate how to work together and how to improve the Open Source desktop, server and embedded space. This is about opening up the channels of communication between different projects to see how we can work together. Whats more, you don’t have to be a huge project like Mozilla, X.org, GNOME or KDE to attend - smaller projects are more than welcome!

Although Canonical are providing the venue for this event, this is a vendor neutral show and all distributions, projects, vendors, and contributors are welcome to attend. The event is at no-cost to participants.

This event is an "unconference", meaning that it is run in a FooCamp/BarCamp-style. This means that there is no set schedule, just an empty piece of paper with rooms and time slots. At the beginning of the event attendees start filling in the empty slots with topics they want to discuss, leading to a wide variety of sessions:

You can sign up by letting us know you're coming. Hope to see you all there!
