SVG Open 2011 conference, Call for Participation

[Andreas Neumann <a....@carto.net>]

Hi Batik users,

I would like to remind the Batik users that the call for participation 
of the annual SVG conference is due in a few days. The conference takes 
place from October 17 to 20 at the US east coast, in Cambridge, MA. As 
one of the organizers I would like to invite Batik developers and users 
to present on topics related to SVG. Batik related topics were often 
presented at past SVG Open conferences. We also have a Batik 
representative (Cameron McCormack) on the conference reviewing team. 
This year, the conference host is Microsoft, but the organization is by 
an independent committee that changes from year to year.

You can find information on the conference at 
http://www.svgopen.org/2011/ and the call for participation at 
http://www.svgopen.org/2011/participate.shtml - we may extend the 
deadline for abstract submissions for a couple days. If you would like 
to present at the conference, but have financial troubles attending the 
conference, please let me know. We may have some limited funding for 
Open Source developers who are presenting at the conference. We can 
waive the registration fee and help out a bit with travel costs.

Thank you for considering to support the event. If you have any 
questions, please do not hesitate to contact me or at info (at) svgopen 
(dot) org.

Andreas
