+# Open Hardware Workshop in October 2011
 
 The idea is to bring together people interested and/or already doing OH
 to discuss about design practice, legal aspects and business models. It
 would happen as a pre-conference workshop during the weekend preceding
-[ICALEPCS 2011](http://icalepcs2011.esrf.eu/). Here are some initial
-thoughts for [the agenda](OHWorkshop).
