The theme for the Spring 2009 Conference in Dallas, Texas will be "Working Together". The program has four tracks:

Community Source Management/Governance: What are best practices for managing community source projects or their deployments on campus? For encouraging adoption? For gaining acceptance and campus buy-in? For engaging your community in the processes? Presentations for managers, team leaders, executives, planners and strategists.

Design and Development: For developers, architects, UX designers, testers. Presentations for people who build community source products, use them as a development framework or want to learn more about doing so. These are technical topics, tips and techniques, how-to's.

Deployment and Integration: Presentations for people who need to make applications work on campus: developers, content providers, team leaders, evangelists. In particular, we would like to highlight work that integrates community source projects within the enterprise infrastructure and with each other.

Multiple Audiences: Presentations that span multiple projects or audience types. Community source project introductions and overviews.

The content will be delivered in a variety of formats including: half-day seminars, one-hour lecture style presentations, roundtable discussions, informal "birds of a feather" discussions and show-and-tell style poster session demonstrations.
