You still have some time to get your proposal in for OSDC 2008 in Sydney. Yes I lead the conference organisation last year, but there’s a whole new team for this one and I can blissfully be an attendee or, if at least one of my proposals gets accepted, a speaker.

Last year was actually also my first time at OSDC, and it’s really a great event… by developers, for developers… about creating OSS, or using OSS to create other stuff, and about the processes involved. You learn heaps. Remember, the worst killer for learning something, is to say “I already know that”.

There’s heaps each of us doesn’t know, and OSDC is an ideal place to share your own experience and pick up some more info for your wetware as well as tune it, and of course have heaps of fun. OSDC is also lunches and other munches, the included-for-all conference dinner, and just the random chats in the corridor. Not forgetting the lightning talks at the end of each day, that’s like a whole special OSDC culture!
