			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the advantages of living in EU is that I have the opportunity to go to all sorts of open source events/conferences. Since I am a student, I prefer to go to free (as in beer) events for now. I have plans to invest into interesting opensource conferences which require a little fortune to attend when I start working.</p>
<p><a href="http://hatimonline.com/2008/10/28/fscons-2008">Last</a> year&#8217;s <a href="http://fscons.org">FSCONS</a> was my first ever conference. <a href="http://www.sandklef.com/hesa/">One</a> of the organizers for that event was a guest lecturer in one of my courses and while chatting with him after the lecture he told me about <a href="http://www.fosdem.org/2009/">FOSDEM</a>. If I had known about this event in bit advance I probably would have planned things out. So for this year I am probably not going to FOSDEM even though there are many interesting talks happening.</p>
<p>But I will be attending the <a href="http://www.opennms.org/index.php/OpenNMSUCE2009">first ever OpenNMS user&#8217;s conference</a> (and the first major openNMS event in EU).&nbsp; I have found at least one <a href="http://www.software-pointers.com/en-conferences.html">link</a> which lists conferences relevant to software engineering. As for the OpenNMS conference I have already booked cheap flights on Ryan Air. I also have plans to take this chance to do some sightseeing in Germany (I will be booking YouthHostels or searching for places to crash along the Rhine river).</p>
<p>Two regional conferences which I can think of at this point(other than FSCONS 2009 in which I might be participating as an organizer) are <a href="http://www.opensourcedays.org/">opensourcedays</a>&nbsp; in Copenhagen and <a href="http://oss2009.org/index.php?id=main.htm">The 5th Internatinoal Conference on Opensource Systems</a> in Sk&ouml;vde, Sweden.</p>
<p>Edit: (Feb 25 ,2009)<br />
I may be attending the following conferences as well,<br />
INTERACT 2009 12th IFIP TC13 Conference in <a href="http://www.interact2009.org/">Human-Computer Interaction</a><br />
The 2009 IEEE / WIC / ACM International Conferences on <a href="http://www.wi-iat09.disco.unimib.it/WI09/WIhome.htm">Web Intelligence (WI&#8217;09)</a> 	    	<a href="http://www.wi-iat09.disco.unimib.it/IAT09/IAThome.htm">Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT&#8217;09)</a></p>
