[JoPP-Public] JoPP + FSCONS Conference

[Mathieu ONeil]

Hi Johan, all

I think this is a brilliant idea and thank you for volunteering to organise it. I will do my best to attend but being so far away, funding is always an issue. 

Perhaps it may be a good idea to articulate more precisely what is the expected outcome of the proposed track in terms of practical and theoretical advances?

Others need to speak up also. 

cheers,

Mathieu

Subject: [JoPP-Public] JoPP + FSCONS Conference

Hi everyone,

I am probing the terrain for organising a JoPP-conference together with FSCONS (Free Software Conference and Nordic Summit). FSCONS is a yearly event with 200-300 participants, and with a strong track record of mixing technical presentations with visionary and political debates about all things relating to hacking. It is as close as one gets in the lineage of Oekonux-conference series. The idea is that we co-organise a JoPP-track in connection with FSCONS, which would give us an occasion to meet physically and make our journal known among an audience of socially-politically interested tech-geeks. Let me know if you would like to come and/or to present. If there is a reasonable amount of interest, I proceed with the planning of our part of the event.
