Hi
FYI.
Scale is an interesting and worthwhile event, from what I have heard
from those here who have attended and from those in other projects
who have gone. AFAIK, there are very few OOo community members in
SoCal, however. I doubt if we would have funds for subsidizing anyone
to go to it, but it may be worthwhile to see if there is enough
interest in the new and expanded community.
Best
louis

Dear Louis Suarez-Potts,
I would like to bring to your attention the 2008 Southern California
Linux Expo's Call For Papers. We would like to encourage the
OpenOffice
community to participate in this year's call for papers. Our 6th
annual
event, SCALE 6x will be held on February 8-10, 2008 at the Los Angeles
Airport Westin.
SCALE is an annual technical conference held in the Southern
California
area. We are a non-profit event organized by USC, UCLA Linux Users
Group, and the Simi-Conejo Valley Linux Users Group. SCALE's goal
is to
bring together all three pillars of the Linux community: open-source
users/developers, businesses and academic institutions. Each
pillar is
critical to the success and growth of Linux and open-source. SCALE has
been called " .. one of the few good grass-root level technical
conferences for Linux" by Linux Kernel Developer Robert Love.
If you are interested in presenting on a topic related to Linux /
open-source, please see the call for papers on our website at:
