For what it’s worth I’ll be speaking at DefragCon in Denver, Co, USA on November 3-4 about ICT in African markets, technology in emerging economies and various projects I’m involved that utilize web and mobile technologies in developing countries. You can find out more at http://appfrica.org

Thanks for the update, Erik!

@Heri – It’s a subject-driven barcamp, not a region-driven one. There seems to be a lot of interest by Africans in the San Francisco area, and by non-Africans wanting to talk/learn about African stuff. Should be good.
