This October, XOOPS will be in the spotlight at the 5th annual Free Software and Open Source Symposium (FSOSS) in Toronto, put on by Seneca College.

Julian Egelstaff of Freeform Solutions will be talking about XOOPS and Formulize in a presentation called Breaking the module mold -- rapid application development in a module-driven, PHP-based platform/CMS.

This is a great opportunity to promote XOOPS in the open source community, and we hope that other members of the XOOPS community near Toronto can make it out to show their support.

This year, FSOSS has attracted an impressive speakers list, including Mike Shaver, one of the founders of the mozilla project, Marcus Bornfreund from Creative Commons, and many other leaders and developers from open source projects, and from large companies using open source software, such as IBM, Sun Microsystems and Novell.

When: October 26 and 27, 2006

Where: Stephen E. Quinlan building, York University, Toronto, Canada.
