To start sorry for any duplication with other lists but,

After the success of the first conference (the post-conference CDROM =
should be appearing on the cover of Linux User and Developer soon), we =
here at mPowerNet are keen to keep the momentum and so are planning the =
next one for the 16th or 17th October 2003 which will explore how Open =
Source solutions can help to:

    * Bridge the digital divide using low cost technology
    * Minimise hardware and software upgrades
    * Encourage social inclusion
    * Reduce environmental costs and impacts
    * Share resources: share knowledge: support learning

The focus of the day will be wider with different strands specifically =
covering pedagogy, technical issues, case studies and managing change.

We are looking for speakers, exhibitors and delegates for the conference =
which will be held in Birmingham, UK. If you would like to be involved =
or have any input or feedback on the conference topics please let me =
know as soon as possible so I can finalise the date with the venue. If =
you know others who might also be interested drop me a line too.
