Can you explain me how you do this in Norway? From the program, I see that these sessions will be presented by the schools and county administrations that are behind the financing of the Norwegian translations. They have no reasons to keep secrets. On the contrary, I think they are very eager to share their experiences. It'll drive more users to OpenOffice.org, which in turn may bring new financial contributors. I don't know the details of the conference sessions, so I don't know how in-depth the methology will be discussed. (Unfortunately, due to exams, I won't even attend the conference myself.)
