[Dspace-general] Registration is Open: "Higher Education Solutions: The Community Source Way!

[Michele Kimpton]

Please join us at JA-SIG, particularly if you can not make OR2008.  We  
will kick off the week on Sunday April 27th with comprehensive  
developer training on DSpace- "upgrading to 1.5" and "Designing your  
site using Manakin".  Also-we are still in need of proposals from the  
DSpace community at the conference itself- please consider presenting  
to share your experiences developing, managing, integration of your  
digital repository!
This conference will be a great opportunity to hear how other open  
source community projects are working and learn about the world of  
open source in higher education.

thanks, Michele Kimpton
E.D. DSpace Foundation
