We are putting on a free and open event to celebrate our first year of existence. Our first Stanford Open Source Lab (un)Conference (What is an unconference?) is meant as a chance for people across campus and beyond to get together and share their interests in open source and open access. We have some session leads already lined up below but are really hoping for you to show up to suggest a session in keeping with the (un)conference format. (Visitor parking info)
