Call for Papers Opens for ApacheCon Europe 2006

The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) is proud to announce that ApacheCon
Europe 2006 will be held at the Burlington Hotel in Dublin, Ireland,
June 26-30, 2006.

ApacheCon Europe is the official conference of the Apache Software
Foundation in Europe. This annual event creates a unique platform for the
Open Source community in Europe to come together to gain deep insight into
techniques and methodologies critical to the advancement of Open Source
software, and gain skills to optimize the power and versatility of Apache
software.

The conference brings together ASF members, developers and contributors,
business people, and power users, working with Apache and related software,
to participate in a leading-edge forum to exchange ideas and network with
peers.
The conference begins with two days of intensive half-day and full-day
tutorials, which will offer actionable techniques and methodologies pivotal
to the increasing demand for Open Source software.
The three main conference days offer a wide range of beginner, intermediate
and advanced sessions. ApacheCon Europe attendees will have more than 70
sessions to choose from, to gain real-world insight and to learn first-hand
the latest developments of key Open Source projects including the Apache
HTTP Server - the world's most popular web server software.
Come share your knowledge, hit upon new ideas, find solutions and connect
with your peers at this educational, fun-filled gathering of users,
developers, and vendors of Apache software.

The ASF and the conference producer for the ApacheCon Europe conference
series - Software & Support Verlag from Frankfurt, Germany - invite the Open
Source community to send in session and tutorial proposals for ApacheCon
Europe 2006.

Apache Software Foundation members are designing the technical program for
