PHP @ FrOSCon 2012
For the seventh time we will be at the Free and Open Source Conference (FrOSCon) in St. Augustin, near Bonn. This time we will organize a full fleged PHP subconference agian. We also offer space to discuss PHP related topics, or just hack with other open minded people around you. We would love to welcome you at the PHP subconference.
As a subconference you will receive the same benefits as all the other speakers at the conference. This will include a reduced rate at a nearby hotel, free food and drinks throughout the conference. Since FrOSCon is organized by volunteers and is mostly funded by sponsors they / we will probably not be able to cover your travel expenses.
The audience
FrOSCon is a conference organized by geeks for geeks. One of the awesome things about FrOSCon is, that you will not only meet software developers, but also hardware geeks, telephony geeks, knitting geeks, gaming geeks. Prepare for that. :)
Since this is the case you can come up with rather esoteric and complex topics you would not present elsewhere. Please submit your talks to the Call for papers: http://www.froscon.de/en/program/call-for-papers/
