Hear more on Channel9's Countdown to MIX11 Show!

See you at MIX11

The evening event, held on Monday, April 11th from 6:00-9:00pm, is open to all MIX11 attendees and those in attendance can vote on their favorite open source projects. The winners will get a prize and some recognition at MIX11, but the key is the chance to showcase the open source projects by the community, stir the collective brainpower, and network. There will be food, drinks, a fun atmosphere, and a chance to meet many of the MIX11 speakers and attendees. Voting results will be announced at MIX11.

  • What? Open Source Fest
  • When? Monday, April 11th, 6pm to 9pm
  • Who? Open to all MIX11 attendees
  • Why? Because we love community!
