'''Join the first Maemo Summit'''

'''Berlin, September 19-20''' @ [http://c-base.org/ c-base] - right after the OSiM World http://www.osimworld.com

'''[https://maemo.org/news/events/registrations/register/2f91448248e711dd8bcbb7b26102ad49ad49.html Free registration]''' - '''[http://maemo.org/news/events/maemo_summit-001/ Who is attending]'''

In Maemo Summit 2008 you will learn more about Nokia's Linux platform and its evolution. Meet the core team, 3rd party professional developers and key community contributors. Showcase and discuss your work. Learn, share, hack. And have fun!

The [http://www.osimworld.com Open Source in Mobile World] conference is an interesting venue to know more about the business and technical context of the Maemo platform. Nokia is active in this event and invites the Maemo community to join it. After the conference we propose the first Maemo Summit calling to all contributors.

== Schedule ==

The program is still open. You can propose improvements in the [[Talk:Maemo summit 2008|discussion]] page.

'''The sessions and names are confirmed but the day/time they are scheduled might still change.'''
