RE: OSGi World Congress

I'll be in the Town Hall Panel too on open source OSGi, representing KF.

As some of you already have noted the congress is quite expensive and may prevent people from coming, especially so people from the open src community.

One idea we have been playing around with in KF in the past is to organize an OSGi open src "congress". Very developer oriented, low cost, no fancy venue etc. I also think this could be done cross projects, i.e. KF, Oscar, Eclipse, as a joint effort. Comments?

For those interested in attending the OSGi World Congress or just
interested in knowing what will take place, the PDF brochure is now
available:

    http://www.osgicongress.com/documents/OSGI_DF_WC2005.pdf

I am looking forward to meeting some of the speakers I see that are
kindly on the Oscar proposal's list of supporters (sorry if I missed
anyone):  Peter Kriens, Marcel Offermans, Stephane Frenot, and Tom Enderes.

In addition to speaking, Richard Hall and I are both on the "Town Hall"
panel on OSGi and open source.  Hope to see you there!

I think it's a good idea. In the past this has come up before and I 
think there's enough interest to do it. It would be a great way to learn 
more about each other and the projects and technologies we use.

Greetings, Marcel

Both.  Submit (NOW!, since the CFP is closing soon) OSGi-related proposals,
plan OSGi BOF(s), plan participation in the hack-a-thon, etc.

In general a good idea. Quite some
from the apache crew will be there.
Would help reducing travel expenses.

But everyone is busy during ApacheCon
meeting up with all sorts of people
from different projects.

Playing devils advocate...
...maybe not focused enough?

Were you thinking of during Hackathon
or as part of the general Conference?

Have you considered doing this as part of ApacheCon?

Likewise I will be giving a couple talks on Eclipse and OSGi and will 
participate in the panel.  If nothing else we should have an Open Source 
OSGi BOF/wine tasting at the congress. 

As for a more distinct open source OSGi get together, one option is to 
piggy back it on another OSGi related event such as EclipseCon 
(http://eclipsecon.org) or ApacheCon.
