To Openmind 2008

(GPL)

On Tuesday I’ll be attending the annual Openmind 2008 conference in Tampere, Finland as a community member. Some 200 open source professionals, academics and community members will be there discussing the following themes:

• Open source – integration with software business
• Open mobile internet
• Open source powered government and public services

We’ll also hear ‘Lightning talks’ and reports from the participants of ‘Kesäkoodi’, the Finnish Summer of Code hosted by COSS, the Finnish Centre for Open Source Solutions. The program looks quite interesting. Last year we saw some interesting presentations about open mobile software and distros and that was the first time I hold an open Linux phone Openmoko neo1973 in my hands. This year I have an Openmoko Freerunner of my own :)
