the press release (French): http://www.dataevent.com/agenda/resultat.php?id_evenement=3407 The IDC analyst who will close the day: http://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=PRF002538 Mandriva blog announcement: http://blog.mandriva.com/2009/11/26/mandriva-will-be-present-to-the-netbook-world-summit-2009/ http://www.leweb.net/program/speakers http://www.leweb.net/community/09-official-bloggers Another conference, "Le Web", will follow the next two days, the 9th and 10th. Sponsored by Microsoft, Nokia, Google, and many others including major European telcos, this is a bigger event at 1500 EUR a seat, and I hear that many industry attendees of Le Web will also come to the Netbook World Summit the day before. Netvibes will launch a new version. Paris-based Jolicloud will roll out a new beta called Express which will be downloadable and is said to create a partition on the fly for dual boot with Windows (they have worked with Mozilla on cloud sync and have integrated Activity Streams http://activitystrea.ms/). With some luck, if we have good press coverage on the 8th, there will be buzz about Sugar at Le Web; a large number of journalists and bloggers will attend. _______________________________________________ Marketing mailing list Marketing@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/marketing
