There were too many proposals so the BoFs was declined. Nevertheless I will attend the conference and would love to get in contact with anyone interested in Office formats.
Just contact me directly off list, if you are attending and interested in a chat. Kind regards, Svante PS: I have added our report to the Wiki - https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/October2016 2016-09-09 13:18 GMT+02:00 Svante Schubert <[email protected]>: > I plan to initiate a Birds-of-a-Feather session (BoFs) at the upcoming > Apache Conference Europe (Sevilla, Spain November 16-18) > <http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-europe> on > office document formats. > > It would be a good opportunity to meet interested parties of office > document formats in person.
