Call for papers: Open Publish 2008 (Sydney)

Open Publish 2008 is an event focused on issues such as improving the quality of information, better productivity for users and reducing non-productive costs. It will be of particular interest to those who believe in the potential of technology but understand the importance of people.

By combining the flexible collaboration of a user group with input from the leading thinkers and practitioners in publishing, Open Publish fosters meaningful discussion in the publishing community.

The conference is now calling for speaking proposals about the management and implementation of publishing technology based on open standards.

With attendees drawn from both government and enterprise, presentations should explore the technology, business and human factors that are driving change in the publishing process.

Examples of some topics of interest are:

• methodologies for selecting and implementing content management solutions
• cost estimation, return on investment, quality and risk management for publishing projects
• creating or using web-based programming interfaces (mash-ups)
• formal software development methodologies in the publishing environment
• understanding and leveraging open content such as Wikipedia
• best practices for content creation and conversion

Further details about presenting a conference session or delivering a tutorial can be found on the Speaker's Information page.
