LinuxFest Northwest 2011 is almost here. Thank you for helping make LFNW a premier open source event! April 30 & May 1 at Bellingham (WA) Technical College.
Some Fest Highlights
- ACLU/EFF – champions of digital rights; bedrock of Free & Open Source
- Greg Kroah-Hartman, leading Linux kernel developer
- Joe “Zonker” Brockmeier (internationally known, enthusiastic software freedom advocate)
- Cloud; security; Android; multimedia; hard-core sysadmin and dev tools, tricks and tips
- Free (as in speech) brewing (as in beer) – see the process, drink the beer at the Saturday after-party
Much, much, much more...visit the “Schedule” tab at linuxfestnorthwest.org.
Schedule - your opinion please
The final schedule is nearly complete. More space has just become available for the largest Fest ever. Down to a few final schedule spots...vote in the poll at http://www.linuxfestnorthwest.org/content/what-your-top-choice-include-lfnw2011, and add comments if you want.
LFNW World Famous Raffle

LFNW is 100% staffed by volunteers, contributing to the open source community. If you want to join in, please check "volunteer" in your profile (profile>edit>attendance) and send an email to volu...@linuxfestnorthwest.org.
Job Fair and Gathering (Friday evening before the Fest)
Please join LFNW and other local technology people at a job fair and general tech community hullabaloo. Food, drinks, companies looking for tech talent.

Help get the word out
Most people attend the Fest because they heard about it from someone else.

It looks like there will be over 80 talks, so it should be interesting in several ways.
Let me know if there is something that I can do that will tip the decision for you.

I've got on my plate.
