Hello Chris,
Since I am on the planning committee for this conference I can announce the
latest news about the conference.
Our Keynote speakers have been selected and confirmed and I think they will
be of interest to this community.
Ira H. Fuchs, Vice President for Research in Information Technology at the
Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, will be presenting:
Moving Community Source to the Mainstream: Overcoming the Obstacles to
Adoption.
Our second Keynote address will be from Kaye Howe, Executive Director of the
National Science Digital Library. She was only confirmed yesterday so I
don't know what her topic will be.
As the theme for this conference is Higher Education Solutions: The
Community Source Way, I suspect much of the content at the conference will
be quite relevant to this audience.
