NeoOffice @ OOoCon 2006

As announced here, NeoOffice is proud to be a sponsor of the 2006 OpenOffice.org user's conference in Lyon, France. This conference features many presentations and sessions that are useful to any NeoOffice or OpenOffice.org user. As a premier sponsor, NeoOffice is pleased to contribute to the overall OpenOffice.org community. NeoOffice will have an official booth at the conference staffed by the developers of NeoOffice, Patrick Luby and Edward Peterlin. Since we don't have money to make our own schwag, we'll instead be giving out free CDs of NeoOffice 2.0 Aqua Beta and making ourselves available to answer any developer or user related questions we can answer. Feel free to stop by at any time for a free CD, to ask a question, or just to hang out and have fun!

NeoOffice current schedule of booth-related and party-related activities is availble online in a variety of formats:

iCal (enable Refresh to get the latest updates automatically)
HTML (for those who aren't on OS X or iCal)

FreeSMUG @ OOoCon 2006
