FOSSCamp this weekend

Friday, October 26th, 2007

FOSSCamp looks pretty interesting for my fellow Boston-based (or as I am, Cambridge-based) entrepreneurial friends. I will try to be there, and if scheduling works out I’m going to try and organize a discussion about business models for companies that make and/or use open source software.

Sign up, tell your friends, and let me know in comments what kind of presentation I should give. […]
