[Dspace-general] JASIG conference Texas

[Michele Kimpton]

The JASIG conference registration is now open.  Early reg closes on  
Jan 30th, so if you plan on going sign up soon.  This conference is a  
great way for developers to share ideas and communicate projects,  
issues with other open source developers.  Brad, and myself will be  
there as well as several other DSpace developers.  There is a DSpace  
training on Sunday and a DSpace-Fedora developer mashup on Wednesday.   
We hope to see you there.  The event takes place in Dallas Texas.
