[Metalab] International Developer Challenge on IP-communication – SIP & IMS

[David Ayers]

Dear all,

The tight schedule of this event lead us to decide to contact key
communities directly, I hope you understand... and I'd be grateful if
you could spread the word.

I would like to draw your attention to an international developer
challenge (A1 InnovationDays) which started today.

A1 InnovationDays is sponsored by the mobile network operator mobilkom
austria and aims to create, discuss and evaluate cool services built on
IP-based communication (SIP & IMS). A major part of the evaluation will
be based on community voting. For the best ideas & services that delight
and surprise potential users, A1 will provide appealing prizes (such as
skiing in the Austrian alps). Ideas are promoted by users and
applications must be based on Open Source Software.

For all details about this challenge, go to the FAQs
(http://www.a1innovations.at/en/static/faq). For registration, go
directly to http://www.a1innovations.at/registrierung.

Important dates are:
July 3, 2008: Start of the A1 InnovationDays and call for ideas
July 15, 2008: 2 interim prizes will be awarded
August 1, 2008: 2 interim prizes will be awarded
