 your use, development, or philosophy of open source software development 
 in bioinformatics. The committee will select several submitted abstracts 
 for 25-minute talks and others for shorter "lightning" talks. Accepted 
 abstracts will be published on the BOSC web site.
 
 If you are interested in speaking at BOSC 2004, 
 please send us:
 
 * an abstract (no more than a few paragraphs)
 * a URL for the project page, if applicable
 * information about the open source license used for your software or 
   your release plans.

 LIGHTNING-TALK SPEAKERS WANTED!
 
 The program committee is currently seeking speakers for the lightning 
 talks at BOSC 2004. Lightning talks are quick - only five minutes 
 long - and a great opportunity for you to give people a quick 
 summary of your open source project, code, idea, or vision of the future.

 If you are interested in giving a lightning talk at BOSC 2004, 
 please send us:

 * a brief title and summary (one or two lines)
 * a URL for the project page, if applicable
 * information about the open source license used for your software or 
   your release plans.

 We will accept entries on-line until BOSC starts, but
 space for demos and lightning talks is limited.<br/>
    
 SOFTWARE DEMONSTRATIONS WANTED!
 If you are involved in the development of Open Source Bioinformatics 
 Software, you are invited to provide a short demonstration to attendees 
 of BOSC 2004.

 If you are interested in giving a software demonstration at BOSC 2004,
 please send us:

 * a brief title and summary (one or two lines)
 * a URL for the project page, if applicable
 * Internet connectivity requirements (e.g. website Application served on 
the  world wide web, or web based client application).

 We will accept entries on-line until the BOSC starts, but
 space for demos and lightning talks is limited. 

** Because the mission of the OBF is to promote Open Source software, we 
will favor submissions for projects that apply a recognized Open Source 
License, or adhere to the general Open Source Philosophy.
