Workshops and Technical Visits fall outside the main FOSS4G2008 Programme. If you wish to attend these events, you will have to register for a conference + workshop package [http://conference.osgeo.org/index.php/foss4g/2008/schedConf/registration here] or you may purchase them separately.

'''NOTE''':Workshops and Technical Visits fall outside the main FOSS4G2008 Programme. If you wish to attend these events, you will have to register for a "conference + workshop" package [http://foss4g.psaevents.co.za here] or you may purchase them separately.
  
Workshop abstracts will be available on the main [http://www.foss4g2008.org conference website] soon. The main function of this page is to show you current availability of places in each workshop.
+
While the '''Code Sprint''' on Saturday 4 October is a free part of the conference, we need to have an idea about who will attend. So when you send your workshop choices to Petro please indicate if you wish to attend the code sprint. She will pass your name to the code sprint coordinator (Tim Sutton), or you can add it yourself to [[FOSS4G2008_CodeSprint]].
  
The following list is current as of [http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?year=2008&month=7&day=22&hour=12&min=0&sec=0 July 24, 2008 14:00 SAST]

'''Labs''' are 'mini-workshops', also hands-on and are part of the core conference programme so you don't book them now. You will be able to choose them at will during the conference. They will run in parallel to presentation tracks and are 1h30 long. They are listed [[FOSS4G2008_Labs|here]] but their abstracts and scheduling will be available on the main conference website soon: http://www.foss4g2008.org

THIS PAGE IS NOW LIVE! If you have registered for one or more workshops at FOSS4G 2008, this is the page where you select which workshop or technical visit you wish to attend.

  • You can select ONE item from Monday morning, ONE from Friday morning and ONE from Friday afternoon, wherever there are still seats available.
  • Click on the workshop title to view the abstract if you want to find out more.
  • Technical Visits are lined up for the same time slots as workshops. You will have to choose between them.
  • You can choose activities at different venues, transport is arranged and is included.
  • Get back to Petro at peoplesa dot co.za with the CODES of the items you wish to attend and Workshop Booking : Your name and surname in the subject line and she will confirm your seat, once you have registered and paid for the conference.
  • To find out more about FOSS4G 2008, visit the main conference website http://www.foss4g2008.org.

NOTE:Workshops and Technical Visits fall outside the main FOSS4G2008 Programme. If you wish to attend these events, you will have to register for a "conference + workshop" package here or you may purchase them separately.

While the Code Sprint on Saturday 4 October is a free part of the conference, we need to have an idea about who will attend. So when you send your workshop choices to Petro please indicate if you wish to attend the code sprint. She will pass your name to the code sprint coordinator (Tim Sutton), or you can add it yourself to FOSS4G2008_CodeSprint.
