  1. why didn't I know about it? by SamSeaborn · · Score: 3, Interesting
    I'm a programmer at a large size hi-tech company in Ottawa and I didn't know about the Linux symposium. I would have gone.

    I'm not a hardcore linux geek, but I watch the news, read the paper, and I'm on slashdot every day. You guys are going to *have* to do a better job advertising this!

      It was already sold out with no advertising, so why should they advertise?

      Make sure you get in early for next year--it's way cheaper that way.
