Linux.conf.au Coming Soon

Posted by Hemos on from the best-show-ever dept.

One of my most favorite Linux-centric shows of all time, Linux.conf.au is gearing up in their latest location - Canberra. The registration is still open; I highly, highly recommend attending the show.

    I thought it was FreeBSD that was popular with Austrailians what with those jails to help them hold onto their roots.

    What do you mean with that??

    You are saying that Debian is not GNU???
    Oh, off course!, that's why it's called Debian GNU/Linux!!

    Debian is an example of a distribution of GNU.

    Linux reffers to the KERNEL of the system. This conference is actually about Free Software and the Free Operating System that uses Linux as it's kernel. The name of that system is GNU, duh!.
