A New FOSS Conference Comes to Florida (Video)

Posted by Roblimo on Friday September 5, 2014 @08:46AM from the more-foss-is-not-to-be-sneezed-at dept.

Bryan Smith has worked with the organizers of several Linux and Open Source events and has spoken at more than a few, but he has always wanted to see more FOSS events in Florida, the state where he lives. There was a Florida Linux Show back in 2008 and 2009, but all that remains of it today is a "ghost" Web page. But that's the past. This year Bryan has put together FOSSETCON, which debuts this September 11 - 13 in Orlando. It's an ambitious undertaking -- but Bryan has rounded up a lot of solid sponsors, and that's often the key to holding a successful IT event. (Alternate Video Link)

Can we get a wrestling ring put in somewhere during the conference, and have a pro-systemd and con-systemd tag team match? That would finally settle the thing, once and for all.
