Hi,
the ApacheCon is back in Europe [1], [2]. It will take place in Sinsheim,
Germany in the first week of November 2012 (5th - 8th).
The cool thing for the Apache OpenOffice (incubating) project is that the
conference has got an OpenOffice track [3]. Please look into the conference
schedule for further details [4].
Several Apache OpenOffice (incubating) contributors will give talks on different
topics around Apache OpenOffice and its ecosystem. They will be available for
further discussions. General community sessions are also part of the schedule.
Thus, when you want to meet them in person come to the ApacheCon EU in November.
Details regarding tickets, venue, etc. can be found at [1].
The conference committee has just announced a special ticket price for Apache
committers - look into your Inbox.
The Apache OpenOffice (incubating) project has some funding for Apache
OpenOffice community members, also non-Apache committers will be able to apply
for it. The details have been already clarified. I hope that the application
process will start this week. Stay tuned for the funding announcements in case
you need funding.
Every helping hand is welcome to make the ApacheCon EU a success for the Apache
Software Foundation and the Apache OpenOffice (incubating) project. Do not
hesitate and get in contact on the <apachecon-disc...@apache.org> mailing list.
