The 8th edition of the "Jornadas Regionales de Software
Libre"<http://www.jornadasregionales.org/>,
a.k.a. JRSL <http://www.jornadasregionales.org/>, will happen on this August
20, 21 and 22, in Buenos Aires,
Argentina<http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=buenos+aires+argentina&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=9&iwloc=addr>.
The JRSL is a Free/Open Source conference that has been held alternately in
Argentina and Uruguay since the year 2000, and both the quality of its
agenda and the number of its participants define the JRSL as one of the most
important events of the region. This year the conference is organized by
CaFeLUG <http://www.cafelug.org.ar/> (the Capital Federal GNU/Linux User
Group), usuaria <http://www.usuaria.org.ar/> (the Argentinian Association of
Telecommunication and Computer Users) and the University of
Belgrano<http://www.ub.edu.ar/>,
Zabala 1837 which is hosting the conference.

The event will also have other important
guests<http://jornadas.cafelug.org.ar/8/en/guests/>,
for a total of 80 speakers and 120 sessions.

The conference is conveniently scheduled after the end of the Debconf
8<http://debconf8.debconf.org/>, which will happen in Mar
del Plata, Argentina<http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=mar+del+plata,+argentina&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=30.723309,66.181641&ie=UTF8&ll=-37.99995,-57.566986&spn=0.476697,1.034088&t=h&z=11>,
and is not too far from Buenos Aires. If you plan to go to the Debconf, or
if you just happen to be around Buenos Aires between August 20 and August
22, just remember to register
<http://jornadas.cafelug.org.ar/8/en/home.php>and participate in the
JRSL too.

Sponsorship: Google, RedHat, elserver.com, tecso, core, xtech and backing

Thanks, Cristian.
