All,You are invited to one of the most important open source conference of the year: OOoCon 2006. To be held in Lyon, France, from 11-13 September, the conference will surely be the most enjoyable!
This, our fourth conference, celebrates a year of triumphs. Governments, led by France, have adopted OpenOffice.org, replacing the proprietary Microsoft Office. Corporations such as Novell have switched entirely; and we have tracked over 67.5 million downloads to date. All want a suite that uses an open standard for the file format, that is flexible, that is easy to learn, and that is free.
And the technology is getting better. With OpenOffice.org, developers can create extensions that add features and functionality. They can localize it for new languages faster than before. At the moment, we count over 75 languages, most supported. And users can install OpenOffice.org on both PPC and Intel Macs.
All this has made OpenOffice.org, both the project and product, one of the most important forces in software history. Come to the conference to learn what governments, businesses, and developers are planning for the future. Come to hear keynotes by chief representatives of Novell, IBM, Sun, Google, and Ars Aperta speak on OpenOffice.org and its democratic file format, the OpenDocument Format. Come to see the new technologies, services, and information being exhibited by our sponsors, including Insa, CUsoon, IBM, Sun, Intel, NeoOffice, GrandLyon, Ville de Lyon, O3 Spaces, Google, and SCAI.
Or just come for the fun. OOoCon is known for its conviviality and for the interesting people it brings together. There is no other event like it. We hope to see you there!
