********************************************************************

Last year's event attracted over 1700 attendees, with an audience
hungry for information and eager to hear about the latest developments
and trends in the Open Source world.  This time, it could be YOUR
chance to enlighten, and maybe even enrapture, a room full of your
peers with your latest innovation or foray into an Open Source
technology.  But not only that: it's also an excellent opportunity for
you to rub shoulders with the heroes, founders and demi-gods of the
Open Source community - plus have a ton of fun!

Here are the topics:

* Linux 
* Apache 
* Python 
* Sendmail 
* Open Source Business Strategies 
* Tcl/Tk 
* Other open source technologies

This year, we are focusing on Open Source technologies enabling secure,
high-volume e-commerce. Technical talks in any of the above tracks that
zoom in on e-commerce will be particularly welcomed!

All submissions should be directed to: oscon00proposals at oreilly.com

that is going to knock the socks off your fellow hacker's feet?  You
got it! We are extending the original submission deadline to Feb. 18,
2000.  Don't miss it.
