Subject: Call for Participation (preliminary) - Open Source Conference,
March 2003 - Washington, DC


Hello everyone,

As one of the organizers of the following planned event I am trying to determine the level of interest that exists among this group and others in participating before I formalize my request for space and time allocation.

The Cyberspace Policy Institute of The George Washington University, in collaboration with the US Department of the Navy, the General Services Administration, and other sponsors TBA is planning to hold a 3-day conference on Open Source in March 2003 in Washington, DC.

The aim of the conference is the presentation of best practices, awareness raising, and the sharing of experiences among policy makers, donors, developers, users/consumers, universities, and industry specialists in Open Source, e-Government and related fields.

We plan to have a 1/2 to 1 full day session (depending on the level of interest for participation) on "Open Source Software and Open Standards in e-Health". The format is still to be determined but I anticipate it to include individual presentations and panel discussions in addition to demonstration projects.

As I said before, I need to have an idea of the level of interest in participating/attending the conference so I can start bargaining for appropriate time/space.

Please respond to my office address: < guzmann@gwu.edu if you have an interest in participating.

I also welcome any discussion, comments, suggestions, ideas which you would like to post to the list so we can discuss them with other members.

Many thanks.

Nick
