GUADEC 2010, call for volunteers

(please circulate, Dutch version at
http://live.gnome.org/GUADEC/2010/OproepVoorVrijwilligers)

GUADEC 2010 - CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS
=================================

GUADEC (pronounced GWAH-DECK) is an acronym for the GNOME
Users' And Developers' European Conference. Held annually in
cities around Europe, GUADEC is the largest gettogether of
GNOME users, developers,   foundation leaders, individuals,
governments and businesses in the world. Gnome is the Free
and open source software stack that drives the user
interface of many Linux-based devices, from smartphones to
your home pc.

GUADEC 2010, the eleventh edition, will be in The Hague, The
Netherlands and takes place on July 24 - July 30.

The organisation team calls you to arms! A community
conference like GUADEC only happens when the community puts
its weight behind it.

This is your chance to be part of this event. Whether you
are a conference rookie or a seasoned GUADEC veteran, your
help is much appreciated.

As a volunteer at the conference, you may enjoy special
benefits such as a free and limited edition volunteer shirt
and free food and drinks during your volunteering hours.

How to sign up
--------------

If you are interested, please subscribe to the GUADEC
[1]mailing list and (important) send an email to
gmc <at> sonologic.nl. Have a look below to find out what kind of
help is needed.

Webmaster
---------

On the short term we are looking for a webmaster. You will
be maintaining the conference web infrastructure, and help
form a team that will customise the look and feel of the
current conference website at http://2010.guadec.org/.

Knowledge of php, mysql and css are required for this task.

Other competencies
------------------

We also need designers to expand the current design team.
The design team will take care of graphic design regarding
the website, the program, badges and other print material,
banners, and other items.

The registration desk and speaker desk form an important
part of the conference organisation. The former will handle
communication with visitors before the conference, as well
as registration at the start of the conference.

The later is an important link between speakers and the
conference organisation. The speakerdesk will communicate
with speakers, make sure speakers know where to be at what
time and generally make sure the program of talks runs
smoothly.

In addition, during the conference itself we will need a lot
of hands for building up, monitoring the lecture rooms
(heralding) and lots of other odd jobs.

So whatever your background, there is likely a job with your
name on it!

What is GUADEC all about
------------------------

The primary goals of GUADEC are:

- to set the direction of the project in the coming year;
- to attract developers and contributors to the project;
- to help corporate partners be involved in the project;
- to connect developers, corporate partners and governments;
- and to showcase our latest technologies.

The week will be split into three phases: the warm-up days
leading up to GUADEC; GUADEC itself; and After Hours. During
these phases , the talks will be divided in different
categories, focusing on the future of GNOME, the preview and
demonstration of existing technologies, as well as
brainstorming sessions with public administration and the
industry.

gscan2pdf 0.9.30 released

gscan2pdf - A GUI to produce a multipage PDF or DjVu from a scan.

Only two clicks are required to scan several pages and then save all or a
selection as a PDF or DjVu file, including metadata if required.

gscan2pdf can control regular or sheet-fed (ADF) scanners with SANE via
scanimage or scanadf, and can scan multiple pages at once. It presents a
thumbnail view of scanned pages, and permits simple operations such as
cropping, rotating and deleting pages.

OCR can be used to recognise text in the scans, and the output
embedded in the PDF or DjVu.

PDF conversion is done by PDF::API2.

The resulting document may be saved as a PDF, DjVu, multipage TIFF file, or
single page image file.

Changelog for 0.9.30:

* + Ocropus support
* Use Goo::Canvas to place OCR output at boundary boxes supplied by Ocropus
  New dependency on XML::Simple to parse hocr output from Ocropus
* Write OCR output to PDF or DjVu at boundary boxes supplied by Goo::Canvas
  Closes Debian bug #461086 (embed OCR output at correct position)
  No longer additionally write OCR output as PDF annotation

  Closes Debian bug #510314 (gscan2pdf: Mapping File_Scan to a shortcut key)
