NCOSS-09 announces

Demo Hall for Open Source Applications

on 25th - 26th May 2009, Mumbai, India.
ABOUT DEMO HALL

The National Conference on Open Source Software, NCOSS-09, announces DEMO
HALL for showcasing open source applications. The aim is to provide a platform
for people to demonstrate their open source works/tools to the world.
Irrespective of whether you have a paper at the conference, you can use this
opportunity to showcase your work.


The application, to be demonstrated, should be an open source application -
i.e., an application which is open source, not just built using/on open source
technologies. The application may be new systems or significant enhancements to
existing open source applications. Adapting and adopting a collection of open
source systems to solve a problem will also be considered. With lower priority,
we will also consider existing applications with which you have extensive
experience that you can share with the audience. So, if you find, say Moodle, an
excellent learning management system and you have used it extensively, you could
offer to demonstrate it, to spread awareness of such applications.


All those participating in the demo-hall must register for the conference.
The demo hall will have demonstrations slotted for half an hour each. The
demo-hall will run in parallel with the conference paper presentation, excluding
the plenary sessions. The slot allocations will be done by the conference
organisers, considering the topic of the demo and other parallel events likely
at that time.


If you are interested in participating, mail your applications to
ncoss@... giving a brief description of the demo sessions. Last date
for submitting your 'Demo Hall' entries: May 05, 2009. According to its
relevance to the conference and other constraints, we will short-list entries
from received applications. The list of demo-hall entries will be announced
periodically, adding new entries subject to availability of slots. So apply
early...
