``OpenOffice.org Conference (OOoCon 2003) March 20th - March 21st 2003 University of Hamburg, Germany Meet the community, users, and community sponsors at the first OpenOffice.org Conference. The conference will take place right after CeBIT, which ends March 19th. Hamburg is only 100 miles (160 Kilometers) from Hannover. The conference will attract some high-profile keynote speakers from the developer community, European politics, the open-source movement, and our main sponsor, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Confirmed keynote speakers are amongst others the Open Source Advocate Mitchell Baker as well as the VP of Engineering of the Desktop Solutions Group at Sun Microsystems Curtis Sasaki. The conference will include some limited exhibition space. Miguel de Icaza and Bruce Perens both say that OpenOffice.org is THE most important Open Source project because people can try it without switching from Windows and if they do they'll discover that Open Source can work for them. They no longer have to pay big bucks for office productivity.''
