The FrOSCon conference is a fun conference that takes place at a technical college in Sankt Augustin, Germany (near Cologne and Bonn). The conference is well attended by many open source groups such as Debian, Zope, PHP, KDE, X Org and NetBSD.

This year there will be a dedicated Drupal track with 12 formal talks/presentations and a hacker's room dedicated to Drupal hacking. This will be the largest Drupal oriented conference ever to take place in Germany.

German and English speaking presentations are welcome, and you can sign up and propose a talk on the froscon.org site. Make sure and indicate that it is for the Drupal track.

SoC project?

Since you posted it to the SoC group too I suppose you mean that we students could apply too. However to be sure I ask, can we apply to give a talk about the project we're to do even though we haven't even begun to code/commit?

BTW those dates set in the post are not correct

Yes! I'm planning an SoC lightning talk

I hope that any and all SoC students who can will come. The tickets to Bonn from almost anywhere in Europe are very cheap (since Bonn is the budget airline capitol of Germany), so book your flight and come. Feel free to apply to do a whole presentation on your own, or plan on taking part in the SoC lightning talk. In any case, Summer of Code students will have a cool air-conditioned room to hang out in and hack with good wifi. Much fun.

Ah, to bad that

Ah, to bad that Bonn-Hangelar isn't approached by regular airplanes... You probably could have walked from there to the venue ;)

For any UK or Irish Drupallers thinking of attending..I was looking at flights earlier and it's roughly £40 quid return to Cologne/Bonn from London, with easyjet, leaving on the 26th and coming back on the 28th.

From Dublin it's €68 return to Dusseldorf (about 25km away from Cologne, I think) travelling on the same dates with Aer Lingus and €10 euro each way to Dusseldorf from London standstead with Ryanair.

Very much worth the price!

Thanks about the dates.

Corrected now.

Dates

Gábor Hojtsy's picture

Unfortunately event dates are working quite buggy here. If you look at other events on the site, many of them are set for January, because the month selector often sets itself back to January. That should probably be fixed in the module.

I also fixed the dates on this node before, and experienced this problem. Robert, if you go to edit the node now (although it says August on the display), the month selector will be January, so if you save it, you will get it set to January. It does not remember the dates properly when editing.
