The Open Source Developers’ Conference 2010 will take place November 24-26 in Melbourne. Registration is cheap-as, just $250 for the whole conf and that includes lunches and the conference dinner!
I was lucky to get several items accepted in the program, covering a few of my diverse interests. One I’d like to specifically draw your attention is called OtherSkills lightning session:
Many OSDC attendees have other skills and hobbies, some vastly different from how we mainly know them. There are gardeners, cooks, bee keepers, brewers, photographers, divers, mushroom growers, chemists – so far only the electronics tinkerers have made it in to talks… but given this fabulously eclectic group of people is gathered in one spot anyway, let’s have the great speakers talk about “something else” too.
It’ll be inspiring, as creativity always flows beyond strict topic boundaries… we can learn from anything, as long as the talk is good (just think about TED talks to see a fab example of that).This session will be run in lightning format, with many speakers each max 4-5 minutes.
Are you coming to OSDC and could speak on OtherSkills, please let me know!
