The Australian Partnership for Sustainable Repositories is pleased to
announce that Hewlett-Packard has generously offered to sponsor two
participants from developing nations to attend the DSpace Users Group
and related events held as part of Open Repositories 2006 in Sydney from
the 31st January 2006. The generous scholarships will apply to airfares,
accommodation, and conference fees. The purpose of the Hewlett-Packard
Scholarships scheme is to make the DSpace User Group accessible to

present their projects.
