FrOSCon: Full sails ahead

This year's FrOSCon offers a rich program with more talks than ever.
Preparations are well underway and, as usual, there are some last minute
changes.

FrOSCon 2009 offers 5 parallel main tracks including a dedicated Java
sub-conference. This year's keynotes are two of many highlights in the main
tracks.

On saturday, Simon Wardley (Canonical) offers his insights into "Cloud Computing", one of the hottest topics in IT today and a day-spanning track at FrOSCon.

On sunday, Dries Buytaert (Acquia), creator of Drupal, shares some of his
experience in Open Source software from the perspective of a project lead,
contributor and entrepreneur.

Additionally more projects than ever before offer talks in their developer
rooms. Please check the official schedule at http://programm.froscon.org.
Note that not all projects entered their program into our system, so also
check the project's websites and signs on location.

Sadly, there have also been some last minute cancellations. And with such a
large event, there may be more changes to come. We will keep the online
program updated as changes arise.
