Thanks for the list....

Can I suggest we form a wiki dedicated to events? There could be a few categories/columns, one of them being importance and another possible attendees. Otherwise, I *know* we will lose this information.

Who wants to start the wiki? The main page for the OOo wikis is:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Main_Page

Starting one is easy--I've started two already, one for major deployments of OOo (add more if you know of them), the other for derivatives (blank, so far).


Best,

Louis

Hi All,

Just had a quick look to see what events are possible for either
presenting OOo, or for doing a consecutive OOo conference in the
same location. Most of them are Australian, but I came across a
couple of other very interesting ones while searching and have
included them. Maybe we should start getting a list of events
together, priority of event is unimportant, as possible places
where people can present OOo, be it officially or otherwise.

AusWeb Conference - http://ausweb.scu.edu.au/aw06/papers/index.html

ICWE - http://www-conf.slac.stanford.edu/icwe06/default.htm

ASTC - http://www.astcnsw.org.au/default.asp?item=Home

APWEB - http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~apweb06/

ACSW - http://www.comp.utas.edu.au/acsw06/

There are 3 or 4 education events it might be worth considering in the
UK

FLOSSIE in July which I organise and OOo has an informal presence anyway
because of that

The Education Show in March but given the time I think we would have to
look at 2007

Specialist Schools conference in November - as a company we go there
annually because I know a lot of the headteachers that go there too. I
have given out OOo discs but never any reall formal focused OOo
presence.

BETT - January - Just gone. We were there on OpenForum Europe's stand
with INGOTs and it does seem to have been useful in generating interest
and leads.

Apart from FLOSSIE, all the others are likely to cost around £1500 for a
booth unless as we did with BETT its possible to get on someone else's
stand. FLOSSIE is simple, if we have people willing to take a booth
there I can give it free space. I will be at the others most probably
with INGOTs so I will be busy all the time but I can provide advice if
it helps.
