Brussels, 13 December 2007 – Faithful to its aim to foster the development and use of Open Source Software (OSS) to help industries in the global race for growth, on 16 and 17 January 2008 the international QualiPSo consortium is organizing its first international conference: "Fostering trust and quality of Open Source Software systems".

Organized in Rome, under the patronage of the European Commission, the QualiPSo 2008 conference will bring together international authorities and experts on OSS trends, reveal the first results of research carried out by the QualiPSo consortium, and be a forum for debate about the drivers for encouraging trust in OSS. It will approach Open Source from three complementary angles: political, economical and technological, covering:

- Trustworthiness of OSS products and processes
- Interoperability in the area of Open Source
