"In the past, the event has had topics ranging from community building to 
advocacy. Although this approach has achieved considerable success, 
FOSS.IN/2007 will be dominated by project and technology talks, in order 
to avoid duplicating the efforts of User Groups and other conferences that 
focus on user and introductory topics.

The main objective of FOSS.IN is to promote involvement in FOSS projects, 
so presentations about actual contribution to FOSS projects would be of 
primary importance.

Contribution is defined as actual coding, design, documentation, testing, 
etc. Our primary criteria for selection of talks (especially for the Main 
Conference sessions) will be whether the presenters are actually involved 
in the project that they are talking about - as contributors, not solely 
as users.

This change in orientation has been a result of continuous feedback from 
FOSS stalwarts who have attended the previous events."
