We would like to invite you and the members of your group to attend the Calgary Open Source Systems Festival (COSSFEST - www.cossfest.ca).

COSSFEST is a two day event featuring multiple speaking tracks and workshops demonstrating the use of Open Source to lower costs, and increase the capabilities and competitiveness of your business.

COSSFEST brings together thought leaders in the technology industry, technology professionals, businessmen, and computer enthusiasts to share the latest news and Open Source know-how.

COSSFEST 2009 will be held April 17th and 18th 2009 at the Coast Plaza Hotel in Calgary.

We ask that you pass this information on to your group members, and contact us if you would like to contribute. We are currently looking for: - sponsors to help offset the costs and highlight Open Source in the wild (http://www.cossfest.ca/sponsorpackages) - speakers to share the knowledge (http://www.cossfest.ca/cfp) - volunteers and any other ideas to make the event bigger and better!

You can contact us at info@cossfest.ca for more information.

Thank you for your time, and we look forward to seeing you on April 17th & 18th!
