[I'm posting this on behalf of Marty Bowes --Roy] Hi Everyone,
I'm helping to organise the first OSBootcamp at Oxford University. These will of course be closely modelled on the OSBootcamps that Andrew Ross has been staging in Canada and the US. Much like Andrew, we are hoping to attract interest from the student community and give them some interesting sessions on topics related to Opensource and just general bread and butter skills in computing. At the same time we have no objection to anybody else turning up. There will be snacks, there will be a door prize! Just so we can cater for the event all we ask is that you register your interest at: http://www.osbootcamp.org/ We'd also love to hear from anybody regarding speaking at future events and to help us sponsor the events. The agenda for the Oxford Bootcamp is as follows: Date: 3rd November. Location. Said Business School, Seminar Room A. 17:30-17:40 - Welcome & OSBOOTCAMP introduction - Andrew Ross (video) 17:45-18:30 - Tearing files apart. - Martin Bowes 18:35-19:20 - vi - What they didn't tell you in the manuals. - Roy Hann 19:20-19:40 - Food & Drinks 19:40-20:25 - Opensource Licencing - Rowan Wilson 20:25-20:30 - Prizes and wrap up - Mike Flower Hope to see lots of smiling faces there! pp Martin Bowes -- UK Ingres Users Association 2009 Conference will be held on Tuesday, June 9, 2009 Go to www.rationalcommerce.com/iua.htm to join the mailing list. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ingres.com http://lists.ingres.com/mailman/listinfo/users
