Summer of Code at linux.conf.au

If you find yourself in Melbourne, Australia next week, Google will be hosting a student party as part of our planned festivities for linux.conf.au 2008. All Summer of Code students and mentors are welcome to attend. The party is open to any high school or university student who'd like to join us, so bring your friends! For those attending the conference, the student party is just one of the great things we've got planned for LCA; you can find full details on the Google Code Blog. It would also be wonderful to see several SoCers in the audience for my talk on Google, Open Source and Google Summer of Code so we can give all of you a round of applause.

We'll also be showcasing Summer of Code and the Highly Open Participation Contest at LCA's aptly-named Open Day, which is open to the public. Attendance is free of charge, so stop by with anyone you'd like to introduce to the the open source community.

We hope to see all of you there. If you'll be attending the conference, post a comment and let us know so we can keep an eye out for you.

Good luck with all the presentations.
