PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS+PLUS Philadelphia Linux/Unix Symposium + August 23rd to August 25th, 2002, Philadelphia/Delaware Valley Region, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. http://plus.phillylinux.org Greetings, This is an invitation to all potentially interested parties and participants; you may remember me from last year when I sent out invitations to the East Coast 10th Anniversary Linux BBQ/Picnic, or you may know me from elsewhere, or not at all. Well, the East-coast BBQ/Picnic last year went well drawing many attendees from over SEVEN different states. Right after the event, actually, people asked that we do it again 'next year'.. and well, it's next year. So, here we go.. However, it's not just the picnic this time. For the longest time, people have been talking about doing some sort of conference or convention in Philadelphia, but they've just never done it.. UNTIL NOW. This is by no means a Linux specific event, folks with interests including other UNIXes and computing initiatives are welcome, with a serious bend towards Open Source and Free Software. We plan on making it an annual event but to paraphrase Linus, I don't expect this to "be big and professional like" ALS, or LWCE. So what's on the schedule for this year? Well, a Bar/food night on Friday the 23rd, a Swap Meet on Saturday the 24th (and maybe dinner afterwards), and the Pot-Luck Picnic/BBQ on Sunday the 25th. A keysigning party may also take place at both the Swap Meet and the Picnic/BBQ. Go to http://plus.phillylinux.org for further information, locations, and directions. Feel free to pass along this invitiation to any individuals, organizations, stores, or companies you feel may be interested.
