Dear all, Open Labs Hackerspace <http://openlabs.cc> are working very hard for the organization of the third edition of Open Source Conference Albania <http://oscal.openlabs.cc>. OSCAL (Open Source Conference Albania) is the first annual conference in Albania organized to promote software freedom, open source software, free culture and open knowledge. The third edition of the conference will take place at 14 May 2016 & 15 May 2016 in Tirana and will gather free once again libre open source technology users, developers, academics, governmental agencies and people who share the idea that software should be free and open for the local community and governments to develop and customize to its needs; that knowledge is a communal property and free and open to everyone.
Open Labs Hackerspace is working very hard in Albania to establish an active OSM community and that's why Marin (in CC) is leading the efforts for an OSM presence at OSCAL with an info booth, where we will talk to new potential contributors about the different ways of being part of the community. Having said this, it would really help the efforts of our community if we had more Mapathon hosts and OSM community members present at the conference. Here is the link for participants that want to join the info booth: http://oscal.openlabs.cc/call-for-applications-info-booths/ Call for applications can be found here: http://oscal.openlabs.cc/oscal-2016-call-for-proposals/ Looking forward having as many community members as possible.
