It is also a great place for business players to get in touch with the BSD products and the people behind them.' It will be held in Italy, in Milan, and will be a 3-day event from the 10th to the 12th of November. The first day will be dedicated to tutorials and the other two days to technical sessions.

    Don't let the fact that it's in Milan fool you, there won't be a single supermodel in attendance.

    It's a total sausage fest, man. Count me out.

    Milan is beautiful, whether the supermodels are in town or not. The food is great and it is easy to get around. EuroBSDCon would be a great reason to go. If I wasn't in the middle of a critical project through the end of February, I'd be there in a heartbeat. Viva la 'BSD

    I mean, seriously, five and a half hours later and there are only 6 comments!? Let's estimate how many people will actually attend this conference:

    (Number of positive slashdot comments = 2)*(Generous nonresponse bias adjustment = 10) + (best friends and spouses (if any) of organizers = 6) - (adjustments because that Real Doll isn't really your spouse, dude, and also because homeless Milanese ex-supermodels seeking shelter don't count = 3) = 23

    Hope those 23 BSD dorks^H^H^H^H^H folks have a great con!

      Sure, we are all just very busy writing abstracts and booking flights. No time to comment on /.
