I’ll probably be too tied up to go this summer, but this conference looks quite interesting. The First International Conference on Open Source Systems is to be held July 11-15, 2005, in Genoa, Italy.

OSS2005 will provide a forum to discuss theories, practices, experiences, and tools relating to development and applications of OSS systems, with a specific focus on two aspects:
– the development of open source systems and the underlying technical, social, and economic issues;
– the adoption of OSS solutions and the implications of such adoption both in the public and in the private sector.
