<p>New Zealand Football chief Graham Seatter is shaking his head at the "irony"
of Fiji fielding an under strength team in a World Cup qualifier just a month
after saying it could not play the All Whites because its top goalkeeper could
not get a visa to enter New Zealand. Fiji was thrashed 4 0 by New Caledonia in
Noumea in the Oceania Nations Cup 2010 World Cup qualifying group competition
the same night New Zealand crushed Vanuatu 4 1 in Wellington. But Seatter said
yesterday Fiji had apparently fielded its under 23 team to give it practice
before the Olympic Games...<br/>

<p>With SOA moving past its initial buzzword phase into increasingly widespread
worldwide deployment, it is often accompanied by Open Source technology. The age
of Enterprise Open Source (EOS) has indeed arrived, and is now seen as a key
component to enterprise IT as it considers, designs, and deploys its
infrastructure for today and tomorrow.</p>

<p>The Second Annual Enterprise Open Source Conference is thus colocated with
the SOA World Conference &amp; Expo 2007, bringing together SOA and EOS into a
uniquely insightful event!</p>

<p>2006 saw the celebration of the first decade of ASF and the Open Source
community. The past ten years has been a roller coaster ride. As we enter into
our second decade we are looking forward to the next ten year and beyond of ASF,
ApacheCon and the continuing evolution of the Open Source community.</p>

<p>The ASF comprises some of the most active and recognized developers in the
Open Source community. By bringing together the pioneers, developers, and users
of flagship Open Source technologies, ApacheCon provides an influential platform
for dialogue, between the speaker and the audience, between project contributors
and the community at large, traversing a wide range of ideas, expertise, and
personalities.</p>

<p>ApacheCon welcomes submissions from like-minded delegates across many fields,
geographic locations, and areas of development. The breadth and
loosely-structured nature of the Apache community lends itself to conference
content that is also somewhat loosely-structured. Common themes of interest
address groundbreaking technologies and emerging trends, successful practices
(from development to deployment), and lessons learned (tips, tools, and tricks).
In addition to technical content, ApacheCon invites Business Track submissions
that address Open Source business, marketing, and legal/licensing issues. Topics
appropriate for submission to this conference are manifold, and may include but
are not restricted to the below.</p>

<h3>Conference Themes and Topics:</h3>

<ul>
<li>Apache HTTP server topics such as installation, configuration, and migration
</li>
<li>ASF-wide projects such as, Jakarta, SpamAssassin, mod_perl, and XML</li>
<li>Scripting languages and dynamic content such as Java, Perl, Python, Ruby,
XSL, and PHP</li>
<li>Security and e-commerce</li>
<li>Performance tuning, load balancing and high availability</li>
<li>New technologies and broader initiatives such as Web Services and Web 2.0
</li>
<li>ASF-Incubated projects such as Roller, Service Mix, and Harmony</li>
</ul>

<p>Now in its ninth year, the O'Reilly Open Source Convention is the bazaar of
open source technologies, welcoming new voices and projects alongside the

infrastructure. OSCON will have tracks for Linux, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, Java,
Databases, Desktop Applications, Web Applications (client-side and server-side),

<p><img src="http://www.gartner.com/images/trans_pixel.gif"/> Drive development
and adoption for competitive advantage</p>

<p>Now in its second year, this summit continues to grow as a greater number of
organizations move rapidly toward more open source environments. And we've grown
the summit's content to keep pace with our attendees' changing needs. While
beginners in this area can still get the basics to create an open source
community, we've also targeted information towards those enterprises with more
mature models and are looking to build better open source management.</p>

<p>This exciting yet challenging trend in information technology raises many
questions and issues, but also presents opportunities that can help accelerate
new product and service development and drive businesses ahead of their
competitors. If you haven't attended this summit before, make plans now to learn
where open source is headed, how quickly, and the advantages and problems other
organizations are already experiencing. If you're an Open Source Summit alumni,
you'll want to join us again for the latest research, case studies, and analysts
insights that will benefit your own open source initiatives.</p>

<p>We've also co-located the Gartner Open Source Summit with the Gartner
Application Development Summit and scheduled them to run sequentially to make it
easy and cost-effective for you and your colleagues to participate in both
events. Don't miss getting the information you need to keep yourself and your
company on IT's cutting edge.</p>
