OpenOffice.org Conference (OOoCon 2008)5th-7th November 2008 The EventThe OpenOffice.org Annual International Conference (OOoCon) is the premier event for anyone interested in or working with OpenOffice.org. OOoCon is where representatives of all the community projects meet to celebrate and learn from the achievements of the past twelve months, and discuss how to meet the challenges of the next twelve. OOoCon 2008 is a double first - it's the first OOoCon to be held outside Europe, and it will also see the biggest concentration of OOo developers ever assembled in one location on this planet. Thanks to generous funding from the OOoCon sponsors, we will try to ensure that everyone who should be in Beijing, can be in Beijing. If you have ever contributed to OOo, or want to find out how to get involved - mark the date in your diary now! The Location

Since Redflag 2000 and IBM officially joined
OpenOffice.org in 2007, Beijing has become the second hot-spot for the
development of OpenOffice.org and several derived products. The contributions
to OOo from China are steadily growing. It's an exciting time: China's
software developers and users are able to look at office software with fresh
minds, untainted by years of exposure to Microsoft products. Beijing, the
Chinese capital, is at the centre of this activity. A cosmopolitan city with
a rich history, it has re-invented and renovated itself for the Olympic games
this year, making 2008 the ideal year to pay a visit.
Every
year, OOoCon receives great feedback from attendees. It's not just a unique
opportunity to network with fellow enthusiasts, it's also a great social
occasion. Come and meet the real people behind the email addresses and the
IRC nicknames. We look forward particuarly to welcoming a large number of
attendees from the East and South-East Asian communities, especially Japan,
Vietnam and Korea. This year's OOoCon is a wonderful opportunity for
developers from East and West to meet and exchange experience and ideas.
