I don't think I can get there but it might be worthwhile for aomeone to
represent Midgard...though it seems to indicate there will be
representation....

Annual Conference of Open Source Content Management Systems
http://www.linuxjournal.com//article.php?sid=5743

Worldwide representation of CMS programs scheduled for this inaugural Zurich
conference.


On March 21 and 22, 2002, developers of content management systems from the
world over will meet in Zurich for the first Open Source Content Management
Systems Conference. All participants adhere to the open-source spirit: the
source code and therefore the results of their labor are available for free
to anyone.

Low costs and a large degree of vendor independence have led to a growing
share of open-source software in the content management systems market. Six
fully operable programs are already available on the market: Cofax (US),
Midgard (Finland), MMBase (Netherlands), OpenCms (Germany), Wyona
(Switzerland) and Zope (US). Some of these are used worldwide.

On the first day of the conference, each of the six programs will be
presented by their respective developers. On the second day, three
frameworks that are used in conjunction with content management software
will be presented by their respective (co-)developers, Cocoon, Infozone and
Axkit.

The event is organized by the wyona.org Society. The society's goals are the
dissemination of the Wyona CMS and the promotion of knowledge-sharing
between developers of different open-source content management systems.

The conference will be held March 21 and 22, 2002, at the Swiss Federal
Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich. The conference fee is $ 300 USD,
with a reduced fee for students. More information is available on the
conference web site or by phone at +41-1-272 91 61.

The conference will be mainly a developer's conference, but all others are
very welcome as well.
