We are asking local LUGs, free software organizations, and interested parties, to participate. Given the variety of distros systems and the many odd issues to deal with, we need your help, expertise, ISO's, CDs and booth time! Rewards are spiritual! plus fun, swag, parties, mondo geeking, chocolate, networking... Other vendors may participate with systems and software. Stay tuned. If you are on the list of an organization whose members might be interested, please forward this email. Any direct contacts with distro vendors would be a great help. Please contact me if you are interested! Thanks!

Well many people are off at Defcon this weekend and for those who are staying in the bay we will be doing a "by request" presentation yet again on Joomla. We will be doing a from start to finish website setup on Joomla on a linux server that lacks all of the prerequisite packages. This is assuming we have web access to the server in question since its not local. Only other thing notable is we will probably be starting a little bit later than usual (1:30ish?) cause i have to pickup someone in Oakland coming in from out of town. Hope to see you all there!
