As you may be aware, an event eagerly anticipated around the world is taking place in Beijing this year. I mean of course the OpenOffice.org Annual International Conference, which will take place between 5th-7th November this year. We are now in a period of frantic activity for the Conference organisers. As usual, the bulk of the work falls on the local organising team, but the OpenOffice.org Marketing Project has the overall responsibility for organising the Conference Programme: collecting proposals from speakers, creating a Jury to select the best papers, and using the selected papers to create a balanced and attractive programme.

This process has been running for the past few weeks, which is one reason why my blogs have been few and far between. However, I am pleased to say that the Conference Programme and all the session Abstracts are now online:

• if you are still dithering about attending, please browse the site and see what you will miss if you don’t attend
• if you have decided to attend, please register now, and use the Programme to decide how you will spend your time in Beijing!

The countdown to the real big event of 2008 in Beijing is now underway
