On June 19th and 20th, there will be a conference in New York City on open video. If you’re interested in the problems around open video and want to talk with other people, many of whom are working on solutions, this will be the place to be. Ryanne Hodson and Jay Dedman of Ryanishungry.com recently posted a video based on short interviews that were done at a recent open video roundtable. It’s worth checking out.

For those of you who missed my brief note on twitter + identi.ca, I’ll be at FOSDEM this year to meet people from Europe. Although I’ll mostly be at the Mozilla events for FOSDEM I’ll also be there to talk to other people in open source and hear what’s going on in the European community. Drop me a line if you want to talk – I’m pretty excited to get together with everyone.
