Just spent a happy evening (?) looking through all the proposals we have received from people wishing to speak at this year’s OpenOffice.org Annual Conference (OOoCon 2009) in Italy.

This year, for the first time, we are using OCS to manage the conference administration. This means we will be able to give potential speakers feedback from reviewers about their proposals – hopefully resulting in better presentations on the day.

If you’re involved in running an event like this, I’d urge you to have a look at OCS. It’s primarily designed for academic conferences, so we’re bending it a wee bit – but it’s well put together, intuitive, and we haven’t found anything it can’t do. It is (of course) open source

And if you’re a potential OOoCon speaker – remember the deadlines – you need to let us know by August 21st and have your proposal in by August 28th!
