Hello
Two items that have deadlines that may go swooshing by if you let them.
***Funding for remaining HSQLDB work
Funds are needed for the remaining work to be done on HSQLDB to produce a better/best database for OOo, see:
http://hsqldb.sourceforge.net/web/openoffice.html
Please publicise this page to mailing lists and web resources in which you participate.
***Sun Regional Delegate Program for LCA 2005 (AU and NZ only)
As with previous LCAs, Sun Microsystems is sponsoring the Regional Delegates Program (RDP) for LCA 2005. For the LCA 2005 RDP, there will be ten winners: one from each of the Australian states and territories; a national winner; and a winner representing New Zealand.
Each of these winners will recieve: - transport to LCA 2005 - accomodation - professional registration at the conference (including all the normal things which come with that) - special recognition as a RDP winner
Additionally, LCA provides an important mechanism for developers to network with each other, and the RDP winners will have excellent opportunities to further their open source projects.
The closing date is Friday 18 Feb, see: http://www.linux.conf.au/rdp.php
So if you are in Australia or New Zealand and want to go to LCA 2005 get your entry in, or nominate and enter someone else.
All the best Jacqueline McNally Lead, OpenOffice.org Marketing Project
