Postcard From Linuxbierwanderung 2000
Martin Ling writes: "The Linuxbierwanderung 2000 , at Coniston in the UK's Lake District, is currently in full swing. There is an ongoing live site with pictures and a diary, including details of our Beowulf projects. And of course, there's a webcam. Events have included talks on SETI & radio astronomy, wearable computing, and a trip to the Sellafield nuclear plant. Oh, and that whole lot in the village hall is running through one 33.6kbps modem .... Emails to this address should get through, and I will print them on the notice board."
Am I the only one who gets a little jealous when we see all these stories about people going to all these Linux conferences? I never hear about them until after or just before they happen. Is there a site that has information on when where and what the focus of each of the Linux conferences are?
Better yet is there a way we geeks who don't live in cities that don't have these conferences can band together and go in hoards (is that the right term for a group of geeks?) of geeks? Perhaps if we were organized in groups we could save a few $ on airplane and hotel rooms. Someone could probably even make a few $ of they organized these trips and sold them and found some customers.
