    <p align="left" class="title">The conference</p>
    <p align="left" class="blogbody">The 5th annual Bioinformatics Open Source
      Conference (BOSC'2004) is organized by the not-for-profit <a href="http://open-bio.org">Open
      Bioinformatics Foundation</a>. The meeting will take place <strong>July
      29-30, 2004</strong> in Glasgow, Scotland and is one of several Special
      Interest Group (SIG) meetings occurring in conjunction with the <a href="http://www.iscb.org/ismb2004/">12th
      International Conference on Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology</a>.<br />
      <br />
      The focus of the meeting will be on current and emerging Open Source**
      informatics tools and toolkits. BOSC provides a forum for developers, project groups,
      users and interested parties to meet personally, exchange ideas and collaborate
      together.<br />
      <br />
      In addition, <a href="http://www.dkfz.de/abt0840/whuber">Wolfgang Huber</a> of the <a href="http://www.bioconductor.org">BioConductor Project</a> will deliver the keynote speach. His talk is titled :<br /><br />
     <a href="http://www.bepress.com/bioconductor/paper1/">The Bioconductor Project: Open software development for computational biology and bioinformatics</a>.<br /><br />

      MEETING SCHEDULE &amp; ABSTRACTS</p>
    <p align="left" class="blogbody">After careful deliberation, eleven abstracts were selected from a very
    competitive group of submissions this year.  In addition, because we recieved several strong submissions for
    this category, a special 'Annotation Database' presentation section was created this year featuring presentations
    on this subject.<br /><br />

      Lightning-talk Speakers wanted!</p>
    <p align="left" class="blogbody">The program committee is currently seeking
      speakers for the lightning talks at BOSC 2004. Lightning talks are quick -
      only five minutes long - and a great opportunity for you to give people
      a quick summary of your open source project, code, idea, or vision of
      the future.
      <br />
      <br />
      If you are interested in giving a lightning talk at BOSC 2004, please
      email &lt;<a href="mailto:bosc@open-bio.org">bosc@open-bio.org</a>&gt;
      the following:<br />
      <br />
      * a brief title and summary (one or two lines)<br />
      * a URL for the project page, if applicable<br />
      * information about the open source license used for your software or
        your release plans.<br />
      <br />
      We will accept entries on-line until BOSC starts, but
      space for demos and lightning talks is limited.<br/>
    </p>
    <p align="left" class="title"><br />
      Software Demonstrations wanted!</p>
    <p align="left" class="blogbody">If you are involved in the development
       of Open Source Bioinformatics Software, you are invited to provide a
       short demonstration to attendees of BOSC 2004.
      <br />
      <br />
      If you are interested in giving a software demonstration at BOSC 2004, please
      email &lt;<a href="mailto:bosc@open-bio.org">bosc@open-bio.org</a>&gt;
      the following:<br />
      <br />
      * a brief title and summary (one or two lines)<br />
      * a URL for the project page, if applicable<br />

        world wide web, or web based client application).<br />
      <br />
      We will accept entries on-line until the BOSC starts, but
      space for demos and lightning talks is limited.<br/>
      <br />
      <br />
