As usual, the PHP Usergroup Dortmund will maintain a PHP@FrOSCon event at this years Free and Open Source Conference in St. Augustin (near Bonn), Germany. While we created an (amazing) sub-conference for PHP there last year, we will have a project room this year. However, we want to have some great talks in there again (as we had 2 and 3 years ago) and therefore need your help as a speaker!

The deadline for the Call for Papers is coming up fast - May 23rd - so if you're interested in presenting be sure to submit your ideas (name, email, topic and abstract) today!

This year we will organize a PHP room for the third time, like in 2006 and 2007. We hope that we can keep up with the amazing conferences from the last years, and we expect it to be a wonderful open source event again. We would love to welcome you in the PHP room, either giving a talk, or just for a chat or listening. We are looking for speakers right now by starting the Call for Papers (CfP), which will end at the 23.05.2009 - please submit your talks.

Other non-PHP topics you could also submit on include development practices, security, desktop development, open hardware and several Java-related suggestions. You can find out more about these and what needs to be done to submit your proposal on this page of the conference site.
