If you are thinking of presenting at a non Erlang conference this
year, you should consider OSCON, O'Reilly's Open Source Conference
in Portland. We had a really strong Erlang presence this year, and
hope to keep it up in 2014. Thousands of people attend, with about
12 parallel tracks. Simon St. Laurent, who wrote Introducing Erlang
is conference co-chair. <br>
<br>
If you have any questions on talks, target audience, tutorials, etc,
contact me privately. <br>

2014</a>. Once again, we're looking for

to looking for proposals about open source
tools and technologies—that is, all the parts
of the open source stack—this year we'll also
discuss open source in a broader context:
where it fits in today's workplace, "open" as

and open source code. Here are some of the
