Intro­duc­tion

The Euro­pean BSD Com­mu­nity will meet again this year for the ninth con­fer­ence in the EuroB­S­D­Con series. This is a great oppor­tu­nity to present new ideas to the com­mu­nity, inform your fel­low BSD enthu­si­asts about the newest devel­op­ments and work for the con­tin­ued suc­cess of your favorite oper­at­ing sys­tem. The two day con­fer­ence pro­gram (Octo­ber 9 — 10) will be pre­ceeded by a tuto­r­ial day (Oct 8). Call for Papers

We are invit­ing con­tri­bu­tions on all areas relat­ing to the BSD fam­ily of oper­at­ing sys­tems, e.g. appli­ca­tions, archi­tec­ture, imple­men­ta­tion, admin­is­tra­tion and secu­rity of *BSD oper­at­ing sys­tems rang­ing from embed­ded sys­tems to main­frames. Inves­ti­ga­tions on eco­nomic aspects regard­ing the oper­a­tion of BSD sys­tems are also welcome.

Prospec­tive authors of con­tri­bu­tions to the tech­ni­cal pro­gram are requested to sub­mit an abstract via http://2010.eurobsdcon.org/. Pre­sen­ta­tions should last about 40 min­utes includ­ing time for ques­tions from the audi­ence. Authors of accepted sub­mis­sions should pro­vide a full paper for pub­li­ca­tion in the con­fer­ence pro­ceed­ings and give per­mis­sion to the orga­niz­ers to pub­lish the results in the printed pro­ceed­ings and on the con­fer­ence web site at www.eurobsdcon.org.

Call for Tuto­r­ial Proposals

Selected tuto­ri­als will be offered on the day before the con­fer­ence. If you are inter­ested in pre­sent­ing a tuto­r­ial, please sub­mit your sug­ges­tion on the con­fer­ence web­site using the same mech­a­nism as for sub­mit­ting a paper. Please indi­cate if this would be a half– or full-day tutorial.

Spon­sor­ship Opportunities

We are seek­ing com­pa­nies or insti­tu­tions to spon­sor var­i­ous ele­ments of the con­fer­ence in order to keep del­e­gate fees as low as pos­si­ble. Spon­sor­ship oppor­tu­ni­ties include: pay­ing for a speaker’s travel or accom­mo­da­tion; pro­vid­ing bur­saries for del­e­gates who can­not pay the con­fer­ence fee them­selves; spon­sor­ing the social event or the print­ing of pro­ceed­ings. Please see the con­fer­ence web­site for details.
