Main goals of this symposium are :

or using open source tools
* to build and discuss a scientific framework about open source 
technology usage (benefits and limitations)

collaborative works between the academic research world and the everyday 
operational world (companies, local authorities ...)

The symposium is composed of scientific presentations, companies and 
authority testimonies (showcases) and training sessions (labs).

Thus, we invite you to go to http://www.ogrs2009.org where you will find :
