AOSS is an annual gathering of the Australian Open Source community.The fifth Australian Open Source Symposium (AOSS 5) will be held in Brisbane on 16 July 2003.
AOSS is run by developers, for developers, but other members of the IT community are welcome and will benefit from the ``hands-on'' atmosphere. Our goals are to promote the sharing of information and experience, to give the community a place to interact, and to nurture and harness synergies between Open Source projects.
Just as Open Source is a little different, so is AOSS. The majority of the presenters are actively involved in Open Source development. With few exceptions, they talk about work that they have done, or work which is currently in progress. The majority of the developers are local residents, demonstrating that Open Source is a global phenomenon.
Previous AOSS events were resounding successes. We expect this one to be even better.
