Dev-Jam 2006
From OpenNMS
Dev-Jam is the annual OpenNMS developers conference. Last year it was held in cosmopolitan Pittsboro, NC. This year it will be held in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota, at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities campus.
It starts Sunday, 23 July and will end on Friday, 28 July. Please reserve your seat by July 12.
Dev-Jam registration is now closed.
We are staying at Mark G. Yudof Hall on campus. The building is just off of the Mississippi River and has nice views of the river. We will have access to a kitchen, conference room, computer lab, beach volleyball court, basketball court, miles and miles of trails, and easy access to downtown Minneapolis. Click here for more location information.
There is also Campus Map and a list of housing regulations.
If you wish to attend, the cost for the week will be US$400. This will include a private room (with a shared bathroom with one other room), Internet connectivity and all meals. The OpenNMS Group will be covering a lot of the expenses, although we are also looking for other sponsors.
To register, please send an e-mail to devjam@opennms.org. Please include your affiliation with OpenNMS (user, developer, customer, or other), where you are coming from, and when you plan on arriving. Hope to see you there.

What is it?
The true power of open source comes from the community around it, not from the fact that the software doesn't cost anything. That is why the annual OpenNMS Developer's Conference, DevJam, is such a big deal. It brings people from all over the world together, face-to-face, to help bring OpenNMS to the next level. While DevJam is, sadly, one of biggest social events on our developer's calendars, we are hoping that your calendar is free enough to join us on Wednesday, 26 July, for a social gathering at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities campus. If you're into IT, network management and/or open source, and if you are in the area, feel free to join us for food, drink and conversation.
email mhuot opennms org put the @ and . in the right place, if you are planning on attending.
