We have just passed our first major milestone for the DotNetNuke OpenForce '07 conference (Las Vegas November 5-8, 2007.)  Speaker selections have been made and invitations have been sent.   During the first two weeks of May we held an open call for speakers for the OpenForce '07 conference.  Since this is our first conference we were not sure what kind of response to anticipate.  The community did not let us down.  We had an outpouring of submissions that far exceeded our expectations.  We had a lot of really great submissions but in the end everyone could not speak and we had to make some tough decisions.   The conference will have two separate tracks:  one track for DotNetNuke developers and another track for Administrators and Designers.  In addition we invited several other well known .Net Open Source project leads to speak at the conference.  We anticipate that over time the Open Source side of the conference will grow along with the DotNetNuke side.  We see this as a great opportunity to highlight some of the great things happening in the .Net Open Source community. -From Joe Brinkman's blog  More:  http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Blogs/tabid/825/EntryID/1437/Default.aspx
