* Creating conference sites with OpenConferenceWare
OpenConferenceWare is the application running this site. The software is themeable, customizable and open sourced: anyone can use it to run their own conference site. OpenConferenceWare's developers would like to talk with users about making the software better, organizers about using it for other events, and with those interested in joining the development team.

* Bridging the Developer and the Datacenter
This discussion will creatively explore the fundamental technologies being used by hosting providers, and bridge these concepts with open source development and application deployment.
Developers attending this discussion will be provided with examples of where failure can occur, and what questions to ask their provider to ensure optimal uptime for their applications.

* Configuration Management Panel
Configuration management tools are finally coming into their own. Powerful, automated infrastructure management is now available in a wide variety of open source tools. Tools written in different languages, using varying operational methodologies and embracing differing philosophies. Come meet some of the creators and maintainers of these cutting edge tools like cfengine, Puppet, AutomateIT, Chef, and bcfg2 and quiz them in the why and hows of their tools and the philosophies behind them.

* Effective code sprinting
Code sprints are events where developers quickly complete coding tasks in a collaborative environment. A panel of skilled developers will share their experiences for organizing effective code sprints so you can better participate and organize your own. The panel members have organized and participated in over a hundred sprints (ranging from Django to JRuby) and used sprints as the primary way to develop community-oriented projects (e.g., Calagator). While most of the discussion will be about volunteer-run open source code sprints, many of the ideas will be readily applicable to improving development at your workplace. The panel will offer practical, actionable advice that you can use and answer your questions.

* Open Source Microblogging with Laconica
Microblogging lets people share short status messages with their social network. Public Web sites like Twitter, Jaiku and Plurk are wildly popular with consumers, but Open Source programs allow a distributed social graph and implementation inside the enterprise firewall. Evan Prodromou, founder of Identi.ca, will describe the Open Source microblogging tool Laconica and its uses in the workplace and on the Public Web.

* Open Source Tools for Freelancers
As a freelancer, you must be your own IT department. You are responsible for website hosting, backups, version control, project/time-tracking and invoicing. Finding inexpensive and maintainable solutions for these needs can be quite daunting. In this session, I will present an overview open-source solutions for these needs.

* Scala for recovering Java developers
Scala is a functional/object-oriented hybrid language that runs on the JVM or the CLR. Scala is fully compatible with Java and brings many powerful features to the JVM, features such as: the ability to easily create DSL's due to Scala's ability to define methods for most operators, easily target multi-core hardware as Scala's types are immutable by default, access to the Actor based concurrency model, and expressive and concise code due to Scala's type inference and expressive syntax. All this without much of the boilerplate and cruft code that is so common in Java.

* Spindle, Mutilate and Metaprogram: How far _can_ you push it before there be dragons?
Maybe the edge isn’t as close as we thought it was. Maybe you can do some really funky things with your language without accidentally summoning eldritch spirits.
Or maybe not.
The only way to find out is to try it—or, if you are of the more prudent proclivities, to watch someone else try it.

* Using virtualization and automation to improve your web development workflow
Large-scale web projects use sophisticated staged deployment systems, but the prospect of setting these up can be daunting. Using virtualization and automated configuration puts the benefits within easy reach even for small projects. David Brewer explains how Second Story uses Linux, VMware Server, and AutomateIt to grease the wheels of development on their museum-sector projects.

* Virtualize vs Containerize: Fight!
Everyone has a different reason to love virtualization: security, configuration isolation... the list goes on. But containerization offers many of the same goodies as virtualization, alongside an efficiency and performance advantage. Just what you need, more options. There's no wrong answer. Andy de la Lucha and Irving Popovetsky help you ask the right questions about what's right for your environment.

* AutomateIt: Creating agile infrastructure through server automation
AutomateIt is an open source tool for automating the setup and maintenance of UNIX-like servers, applications and their dependencies. Compared to cfengine and Puppet, AutomateIt is easier to work with, more powerful, and uses syntax that will be immediately familiar to anyone that's written a shell script. AutomateIt's author, Igal Koshevoy, is a veteran software engineer and systems administrator that's managed hundreds of servers at a time and has over a decade of automation experience working with companies like Intel, Oracle, and many startups. He'll discuss how to effectively use server automation, and demonstrate how to use AutomateIt's features, along with code samples, that address real world automation needs.
