Reg Dev-ers go EuroOSCON 2006
,----[ Summary ]
| One of the interesting ways in which this year's EuroOSCON differed from
| last year's is in the level of coverage of topics that aren't directly
| related to open source software. Much discussion was raised on a variety
| of social and cultural issues that bear on the open source movement, such
| as building open systems that mash up disparate data sources, and ways
| for people to interact with each other and with their governments.
|
| But that's not to say that the more overtly technical subjects didn't
| also get a mention: attendees who turned up to learn about developmentsi
| n Apache, Jabber, MySQL, and mobile-device programming (among other
| topics) were also well catered for.
|
| This report only scratches the surface of what was on offer at EuroOSCON.
| The whole experience was enormously enjoyable; I'd recommend it to anyone
| who is (or wants to be) part of the open source world.
