More on OSCON

I left a comment on Steven's blog recently regarding his own post on OSCON 2006. I thought OSCON should have the opportunity for open, birds-of-a-feather type sessions at the beginning of the day to give folks with common interests more time to interact.

Well, what do you know? I just listened to O'Reilly's Summer at the Seaside podcast and realized that the BoF sessions I was talking about were called OSCamp. The OSCamp talks were already going on while Steven and I were there sitting in the regular sessions. OSCamp's purpose wasn't well advertised; I seem to remember many of the talks dealing with management topics, and so I didn't give it any more thought at the time. Apparently anyone can post any topic on the board and host their own free-form session. Sounds fun.
