Astricon 2005 :: Call for speakers and Asteriskprojects

I know all you rabid Asterisk fans have been waiting for the next Astricon installment. Here is your information:

Astricon 2005 will take place in Anaheim, California October 12-14th 2005. Astricon is the Asterisk conference, arranged by IPsando LLC in cooperation with Digium.

We are now looking for speakers. The conference will be bigger than last year, so we are looking for more speakers in the conference part of Astricon.

In addition to the tutorials, we're adding a three-track conference day with a focus on call/contact centers, carriers and enterprise use of Asterisk. The full program for Astricon 2005 looks like this:

*** Asterisk Solutions Showcase
For the first year, we're running an Asterisk Solutions Showcase on Astricon! This will be part of the Astricon Exhibition. Asterisk-related Open Source projects will be able to showcase their solutions in this area. Also, if you have a good, funny, scary or just impressive solution based on Asterisk that you want to share, please apply for a booth in the Asterisk Solutions Showcase. Brian Capouch will be there showing Asterisk on Linksys Routers amongst other projects.

Please send proposals describing your solution to info@ipsando.com no later than july 30th. If you want to show commercial solutions that you sell, you need to buy a booth in the exhibition. Ask for more information by e-mailing info@astricon.net.

Looking forward to meeting you in Anaheim! Early Bird registrations will open later this week.

Best regards,
