OpenOffice track on ApacheCon EU 2012, Nov. 5th - 8th, Sinsheim, Germany

[Oliver-Rainer Wittmann <or...@googlemail.com>]

Hi,

the ApacheCon is back in Europe [1], [2]. It will take place in Sinsheim, 
Germany in the first week of November 2012 (5th - 8th).
The cool thing for the Apache OpenOffice (incubating) project is that the 
conference has got an OpenOffice track [3]. Please look into the conference 
schedule for further details [4].

Several Apache OpenOffice (incubating) contributors will give talks on different 
topics around Apache OpenOffice and its ecosystem. They will be available for 
further discussions. General community sessions are also part of the schedule. 
Thus, when you want to meet them in person come to the ApacheCon EU in November.
Details regarding tickets, venue, etc. can be found at [1].
The conference committee has just announced a special ticket price for Apache 
committers - look into your Inbox.

The Apache OpenOffice (incubating) project has some funding for Apache 
OpenOffice community members, also non-Apache committers will be able to apply 
for it. The details have been already clarified. I hope that the application 
process will start this week. Stay tuned for the funding announcements in case 
you need funding.

Every helping hand is welcome to make the ApacheCon EU a success for the Apache 
Software Foundation and the Apache OpenOffice (incubating) project. Do not 
hesitate and get in contact on the <ap...@apache.org> mailing list.
