What is FOMS:

Foundations of Open Media Software (FOMS) is a developer workshop to
widen cooperation and interoperability among open source media
projects. Meet and discuss your plans for the next 12 months and forge
relationships with other developers to unwind the kinks, making open
media kick ever more ass.

This is a call for participation in the second FOMS meeting, which
will be held in Melbourne, Australia over two days in January leading
up to linux.conf.au 2008.

The FOMS meeting is organized by developers for developers.

The proximity to linux.conf.au allows us also to discuss audio- and
video-related issues with the developers of Open Source kernel,
networking and desktop systems.

How to attend:

FOMS attendees will be developers of open media software from the
community as well as professional delegates from companies with a
background and interest in this space. The attendance fee for
professional delegates is A$420.

If you would like to attend, please contact
foms-committee(at)lists.annodex.net and tell us why you should be
there, what you can contribute and what you hope to get out of it.
