Open source is one facet of a larger revolution in commercial and social life which can all be traced back to the inherently open nature of the Internet. At this year's EuroOSCON, we're taking OSCON's winning formula of practical sessions from innovators, and applying it beyond pure source code.
EuroOSCON is where business people, coders, decision makers, lawyers, entrepreneurs, artists, and policy makers using, creating, and managing free (libre) and open projects gather to learn about best practices, strategic issues, and coming changes. The 2006 O'Reilly European Open Source Convention takes place in Brussels, Belgium on 18-21 September.
Save the date for the 8th annual O'Reilly Open Source Convention, happening July 24-28, 2006 at the Oregon Convention Center in beautiful Portland, Oregon.
The O'Reilly Open Source Convention is where coders, sysadmins, entrepreneurs, and business people working in free and open source software gather to share ideas, discover code, and find solutions. At OSCON 2005, more than 2,400 attendees took part in 241 sessions and tutorials across eleven technology tracks, learning about the newest features and versions from creators and experts. A record number of products launches and announcements were made, and sponsors and exhibitors from a wide range of companies filled the largest exhibit hall in OSCON's history. We anticipate that OSCON 2006 will be even more successful, and continue to be the place for the open source community to meet up, debate, make deals, and connect face to face. OSCON 2006 will take place at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Oregon July 24-28, 2006.

Drupal code from Ashish and the rest of the folks at his company, Tekriti (as well as the merry men at Broadband Mechanics like Phil Pearson and Moshe Weitzman), is powering AlwaysOn GoingOn, Ourmedia and other projects with features like organic groups, Ajax, etc. I look forward to having these cool features and more incorporated into the main branch of Drupal now and in the future.
