The Open Library has
launched to put freely licensed and public domain books online.
This looks very similar to what
Project Gutenberg has
been doing for years, but discussions of the former never mention
the latter. From a bit of reading, it seems that The Open Library
will include books that are under more restrictive terms, but I
haven't found the details yet.
EuroPython 2008, the European conference for the communities around
the Python programming language, including the Zope and Plone communities, will be held once again in
Vilnius, Lithuania.
