For the first time in South Africa all those who are in some way involved with Joomla! will get together to share ideas and experiences with the open source content management system. The day aims at allowing all Cape Town Joomla! users, designers, developers, administrators, trainers, webhosts and other related service providers to meet and talk Joomla!

The event will take place at Cape Town's Bandwidth Barn (125 Buitengracht Street, see map) on June 16 from 9am to 4pm.

The organisers hope that this will be the first of many across the country as Southern Africans discover Joomla!.

The event is practically free, but seating is limited to only 40 attendees. Register on www.joomla.org.za, or email Joomla! Support for more information and to book a seat.

There will also be a commercial Joomla! Users Training Courses on the afternoons of the 14th and 15th of June, and a Joomla Administrators / Developers Training Course on the 18th of June, for those who want to learn how to develop websites using Joomla!.

The organisers can be contacted on the following numbers:
