Fwd: Re: O'Reilly Open Source Convention

[Francois LETELLIER <francois.letellier@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

we'll take advantage of the O'Reilly OSCon (Portland, OR, July 28th) to
set-up a joint BOF session with Apache about the opportunities for
collaboration between our two organizations. The formal "topic"
is: "ASF, ObjectWeb and Other Java/J2EE Non-profit Communities:
Fostering Collaboration and Maintaining Identities". This is not
intended to be only a technical session: other way of working together
can be addressed too.

The BOF is open to all. Join us if you can.
On any event, please send me your feedback, comments and suggestions so
to prepare this session.

Thanks,
