SUMMARY:OSCON
DESCRIPTION:\n\nOnce considered a radical upstart, open source has mov
 ed from disruption to default. Its methods and culture commoditized th
 e technologies that drove the Internet revolution and transformed the 
 practice of software development. Collaborative and transparent, open 
 source has become modus operandi, powering the next wave of innovation
  in cloud, data, and mobile technologies.\nOSCON is where all of the p
 ieces come together: developers, innovators, businesspeople, and inves
 tors. In the early days, this trailblazing O'Reilly event was focused 
 on changing mainstream business thinking and practices; today OSCON is
  about real-world practices and how to successfully implement open sou
 rce in your workflow or projects. While the open source community has 
 always been viewed as building the future—that future is here, and i
 t's everywhere you look. Since 1999, OSCON has been the best place on 
 the planet to experience the open source ecosystem. At OSCON, you'll f
 ind everything open source: languages, communities, best practices, pr
 oducts and services. Rather than focus on a single language or aspect,
  such as cloud computing, OSCON allows you to learn about and practice
  the entire range of open source technologies.\nIn keeping with its O'
 Reilly heritage, OSCON is a unique gathering where participants find i
 nspiration, confront new challenges, share their expertise, renew bond
 s to community, make significant connections, and find ways to give ba
 ck to the open source movement. The event has also become one of the m
 ost important venues to announce groundbreaking open source projects a
 nd products.\n\"For those who have not been to OSCON, it's a great tec
 hnical conference covering the whole spectrum of open source, includin
 g Linux, MySQL, the LAMP stack, Perl, Python, Ruby on Rails, middlewar
 e, applications, cloud computing, and more. OSCON always has great key
 notes, tutorials, and evening Birds-of-a-Feather sessions. As with man
 y conferences, a lot of the meat takes place in hallway conversations 
 and impromptu sessions.\" —Zack Urlocker, InfoWorld\n\n\nExperienc
