[Fsuk-manchester] Fwd: [ubuntu-uk] Fwd: Join Us At OggCamp10!

[Lucy]

I'm sure people have heard about this by now, but I thought I'd remind
everyone anyway.

I'm looking forward to it. Anyone else planning on going?

There will also be a stand promoting Ubuntu and getting people to
install the brand new 10.04 release (out Thursday!). if anyone's
interested in helping please drop Les P an email at

Subject: [ubuntu-uk] Fwd: Join Us At OggCamp10!

OggCamp is a free software / free culture unconference organised by
the presenters of the Ubuntu UK Podcast and Linux Outlaws. This year's
OggCamp will take place at The Black-E in Liverpool, UK on the 1st and
2nd of May 2010, 10am - 5pm (roughly) both days. It'll be 2 full days
of Free Software, Free Culture and Free Thinking. We have a large
venue booked and expect 200-300 people. If you want a chance to meet
others who are passionate about technology and share ideas this is a
great chance. We have many top FOSS developers from around the world
joining us.

ENTRY TO OGGCAMP IS COMPLETELY FREE!

If you want to get a feel for the event, have a look at our recap of
OggCamp 2009.

What is an Barcamp/unconference?
More formal conferences have the usual people speaking every time; an
unconference is an opportunity to interact with new and interesting
people. There won't be a published list of speakers before the event,
everyone generates content on the day. That can include you! The
schedule is decided by the attendees and we'll have a voting system
for that.

See what others are already proposing - http://ideas.oggcamp.org/talks

What Is An Ogg?
Ogg Vorbis is a completely open, patent-free, professional audio
encoding and streaming technology with all the benefits of Open
Source. OggCamp is about technology, Open Source and Freedom, but also
about music, art, politics, community, creativity and much more. We
chose to use the term Ogg because for us it reflects all these things
pretty neatly.

Get Involved:
Please add your own ideas for talks and activities to our public wiki
– help make the event what you want it to be! It doesn't even have to
be about technology strictly, it could be anything. We have about 60
slots available and all are welcome - ideas.oggcamp.org
You can also meet other attendees on IRC in #oggcamp on the Freenode network.

If you have a project you'd like to promote or exhibit about you can
email the organising team - address@hidden

Come and join us, it's going to be a great weekend. There's travel
information and much more at http://oggcamp.org
