The annual "Open Help" conference will be taking place in Cincinnati, Ohio, June 14-15, with sprints following June 16-18.
This is a gathering of people interested in documentation and support from across many open source projects. I haven't attended before, but I think it's supposed to be pretty good, and the format looks great (part of the day for sessions encouraging discussion; part of the day for just discussion).
See http://openhelpconference.com/ for more information. I might try to attend; anyone else?

Looked into it...
Airfares are apparently high right now, and for me to attend would be pretty expensive. I'm sure it would be a great conference, but I think I'd rather spend my vacation budget on something other than a weekend in Cincinnati this year. :(
Maybe someone who lives closer, is in an airline hub city with cheaper fares to Cincinnati, or has funding can attend to represent the Drupal community? Or if the community thinks it's important that we have a presence at the conference, maybe we should apply for a grant? It looks like Docs leader Lee Hunter has presented there in the past, along with representatives from many other Open Source projects. Lee: How was it?
