,----[ Quote ]
| A national open source group meet-up is scheduled in Cebu to prepare for an
| Asian-wide open source conference in October, a co-organizer of the event
| told INQUIRER.net.
|
| The idea of congregating local open source groups came about after Commission
| on Information and Communications Technology (CICT) commissioner Monchito
| Ibrahim acknowledged the growing number of open source groups in the country,
| according to Bonifacio Belen, executive director of the Cebu Educational
| Foundation for Information Technology (Cedf-IT), which is co-organizing the
| Cebu summit.

Open Web Vancouver shows how to run a big little conference
,----[ Quote ]
| Building on the success of last year's Vancouver PHP Conference, the
| Vancouver PHP Users Association on April 14-15 drew more than 350 to the
| Vancouver Trade and Convention Center to learn about the trends in free and
| open source software on the Web. With speakers from major corporations such
| as Creative Commons, Facebook, Google, the Mozilla Foundation, and Sun
| Microsystems, and a healthy dose of the self-organization popularized by Bar
| Camp, the conference was in many ways a template for how a local conference
| can manage to offer informative and current information despite a relatively
| small size.
