The Community Program Review for FOSS4G has<BR>begun!<BR><BR><A href="http://2010.foss4g.org/review/" rel=nofollow target=_blank><FONT color=#800080>http://2010. foss4g.org/ review/</FONT></A><BR><BR>If you're going to FOSS4G, or seriously thinking about going, the<BR>review is a way to ensure that the program includes topics you are<BR>interested in. You scroll through a list of all the abstracts the<BR>conference has received, and select the ones that are of interest to<BR>you. The conference committee tabulates all the results and uses that<BR>data to help build the program and to slot talks into rooms of<BR>appropriate size.<BR><BR>The number of abstracts is a good deal larger than the
number of slots<BR>this year, so taking the time to do the review is a good idea if<BR>you're planning to attend this year!</DIV></div><br>
