Foundations of Open Media Software Developer Meeting
====================================================

  Thursday 12 - Friday 13 January 2007

The first "Foundations of Open Media Software" Developer Meeting will be
held on the Friday and Saturday before linux.conf.au 2007, one of the
world's most respected Linux and Open Source developer conferences.

The FOMS meeting is organised by developers for developers, and aims to get
the right people together to take the next steps in open media software.
Meet and discuss your plans for the next 12 months with other developers and
forge relationships to unwind the kinks, making open media kick ever more
arse.

We do not have many occasions where open source video/audio software is
discussed and where projects cross-fertilise. The proximity to linux.conf.au
allows us also to discuss audio and video related issues with the developers
of Open Source kernel, networking and desktop systems.

Please see the website for more information, and contact the organisers if
you would like to participate!

The FOMS developer meeting event is supported by linux.conf.au 2007.
