[Barcamp|WikiPedia:Barcamp]
A barcamp is an open, participatory event or “unconference”, with content provided by all those attending. We are organizing a number of topics including Music/Audio programs, Software Patents (why they are bad), Commercial Viability Of Free/Open Source Software, Free Culture, [LCA10|http://www.lca2010.org.nz/] and more as part of our SFDBarcamp. <br><br>
The [SFDbarcamp] wiki page will be opened a week before the event, and anyone can sign up and give a talk on something they are interested in. The talks must have some general connection with Free/Libre/Open Source software.
