The Libre Software Meeting is a yearly free software event that takes
place in France since 2000 (originating from Bordeaux, this event is
driven by volunteers from the free software community).  The LSM 2006
takes place this year in Vandoeuvre-les-Nancy, from July 4th to 8th:

  http://www.rencontresmondiales.org/

The language of the lectures of almost all technical sessions is
English while some of the non-technical sessions open to a wider
and local public may be in French (check on the web site).
Nevertheless, due to late call, expected audience, and possible speakers,
some talks may be given in French or other languages.

This message is a call for contributions for the "libre
software for scientific research" session of the LSM.
http://www.rmll.info/theme_26

The goal of this topic is to highlight free software that is currently
used in scientific research or that, by its quality, deserves a wider
adoption. The targeted audience are researchers willing to share
their experience with respect to scientific free software and
developers of these projects. We focus this year on free software
aiming at graphical representations and handling of scientific data.

There is no program committee (it is not a scientific conference)
and selection process is expected to remain as lightweight as
possible.  If you want to help in organizing the event, you are
welcome.

See http://prog.rmll.info/wakka.php?wiki=3DThemeScience

Talks, in English, in French or in other languages, (with at least
slides in English) are expected to last around 45 minutes. Printable
version of the lecture are not mandatory but would be very appreciated.

If you are considering coming and preparing a talk, please send us an
email at <[email protected]> before the middle of May 2005.
Feel free to send this mail wherever or to whom you feel it is
relevant (but beware of spamming people).

If critical mass of speakers will not be reach for mid-may,
we may have to vanish this session.

Travel expenses are refunded under those rules:
http://prog.rmll.info/wakka.php?wiki=3DFaqThemesEn
so contact us if you feel you need them.  It is safer not to dwell on
refunding.  Registration is free.

Please consider the opportunity of the libre software meeting (and its
infrastructure) to a have a gathering of the developers of the
free software for scientific research you are involved with.  We can
help you in such a matter.

Best regard,
Dr Alain Coulais
Dr Frederic Lehobey
