I'd love to see this come to Utah County or Salt Lake County, and I think we have a large enough Open Source support/interest to pull this off with success. I've even thought up a slogan:
We did the 2002 Olympics, we can do OOOcon, too! OK, maybe some of you have a better slogan... send it! I can't do something this big myself, but I can help a group like UOS "make it so". Can someone at UOS send this idea to some of the other OSS communities?

We are looking for engaged and interested groups to host next year's conference and welcome your proposals. Since the first conference in 2003, OOoCon has been held in Germany, Slovenia, France, and Spain - could your local OpenOffice.org community rise to the challenge in 2008? Hosting OOoCon is challenging, rewarding, exhilarating, exhausting... and can provide a huge publicity boost for OpenOffice.org in the host country. Traditionally, OOoCon takes place in autumn/fall, but there is no fixed date. Would your team like to rise the challenge? Full details of the Call For Location process are available on the website http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2008/cfl.html and the conference organisers' mailing list is open for discussions at mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You can get impressions of previous conferences at http://marketing.openoffice.org/conference Deadline for submissions is midnight, January 31st, 2008. Thank you and good luck with your proposals!
