Mix-IT, Submissions and Registration are open

Mix-IT will occur on the 5th of April 2011 in Lyon at the Epitech Computer School located 5 minutes walking distance from the Lapardieu train station. Mixity or mixité (in French), pronounce it as you like, but there is only one spelling: Mix-IT and its domain name is mix-it.fr . By mixing agile, test, java, craftsmanship and new trends (NoSQL, HTML5, etc.), you will have a full day conference to share and improve your kwoledge in these domains. Due to the limited number of seats, make sure you book your place now . Also,  we are now accepting submissions for proposals for the event.
