Native-Language Party in Barcelona

This year I feel we’re going to have a great OpenOffice.org Conference, and that’s not just because I love Barcelona.

I would like to invite the conference attendants to what has now become a tradition in the OOoCons, the Native-Language Party. Those parties are interesting opportunities to socialize and meet interesting persons. If I remember well, I met with Don Harbison (IBM, chair of the OASIS Adoption TC) in Koper in 2005. We were in a splendid place back then, a garden of the city museums. It was dark and the gardens was full of roman ruins, enlightened by candles and torches. We were enjoying local food (namely wine, cheese and sausages) and talking about everything, being very excited to see the people with whom we’re working all the year but don’t have the opportunity to meet in person.

So this year, the Native-Language Party will be held in the university gardens in the center of Barcelona. Don will be there and I promess him he won’t regret his stay. A beautiful place that I had the occasion to visit in April, the party shall start around 7:00 pm on the 18th of September.

Hope to meet you all there!
