As part of the Open World Forum, France hosted the First International FLOSS Competence Centres Summit in 2009. After this summit wich was organized by the Qualipso Project and had over 35  participants from 4 continents representing 11 different Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS)  Competence Centres around the globe. The momentum created was reflected on the establishment of an international network of Competence Centres to collaborate on the promotion of FLOSS. Currently an initial infrastructure is set up (http://www.flosscc.org) and some of the CC are interchanging experiences and even materials. The Morfeo CC is one of them and has been actively involved in those matters.
