Open Source Developers' Conference 2015
27 - 29 Oct 2015
at Wrest Point Convention Centre, Hobart
The Open Source Developers' Conference is a not-for-profit conference covering all aspects of Open Source Technology, from software and systems to open data. While OSDC was born in Melbourne 11 years ago, it has become an open source product in its own right, seeing it forked in countries including Malaysia, France and Taiwan. The Australian OSDC 2015 will be hosted for the first time in Tasmania, from October 27-29 at the Wrest Point Convention Centre in Hobart.
