Anyone going to Linux World San Francisco?

Post #48,439 by tonytib 8/6/02 4:11:50 PM Reply	Anyone going to Linux World San Francisco? It'd be especially good if the mysterious Maggie could finally make it. I'll probably be there Aug 13 with a co-worker, but there's a chance I might not be able to make it at all (due to my workload). Tony

But, given existing workload, it doesn't sound like I'll be able to go this year :( I'm doing both admin and development work so things are pretty busy. If you do go, please post info on anything interesting that you see. Thanks!

My interests are very much towards the embedded side of the computing world, while, IIRC, your experiences were more with the enterprise side. That's actually one reason why I hope someday we'll be able to meet in person, since it's fun to find out about different areas. I'm keeping pretty busy myself, but will probably just make time; that's what my co-worker says. Overall, our business is looking up, but we're very much in a niche market. Tony

In particular, developing apps. Do post anything you see interesting at the show no matter the area. I think there will be a lot of clustering related news from what I've heard. I just took up a new job not long ago so I probably have to pass on going this time, but there is always next time, I guess. Edited by slugbug Aug. 7, 2002, 09:30:16 PM EDT Expand All History

I've got an overlap with a company function, but plan to attend late afternoon. For those who can't get work time to head to LWE, this might be a good alternate. And it's family-friendly.
