Peter Quinn to Keynote SCALE Workshop
SCALE 4x will include an OpenDocument Format in Government Workshop, to be keynoted by Peter Quinn!
I’ve been invited to this workshop (cool, a personal invite!), and though it’s on the other side of the country, I would really like to be there. Don’t know yet if I can make it though.
Part of the press release reads,
