Dear JAXLug members, The openSUSE Project is hosting the openSUSE Summit conference in Orlando from Friday, September 21-Sunday, September 23. This is an exciting event that builds on our successful openSUSE Conference held annually in Europe.
We'd like to invite all your members and the local Florida community to come join us. As you can see from our program schedule, we have lots of interesting sessions, and not all are openSUSE-focused. We aimed to create an event that is appealing both to our community and to the general open source community. Registration is 100% free! Just follow the links at http://summit.opensuse.org for full details. Already, we are seeing higher than expected attendance. Some events that may be of interest to you: - Friday we will have the openSUSE Around The World opening ceremony hosted by the Vice President of SUSE, Michael Miller and openSUSE Project Board Member, Andrew Wafaa. - Register before September 14, and you can gain free admission to the LPI Exam Cram on Thursday at our parent sponsor's SUSECon conference beginning at 1 p.m. You'll be able to take the exam on Friday at two different time slots for a discount rate of $99 offered by Linux Professional Institute - We will be making a formal announcement later this week, but I can tell you now that our Keynote Speaker on Saturday Morning will be OpenStack's Technical Community Manager, Stefano Mullaffi. - We provide free meals for the entire weekend. On Friday night, sponsor ownCloud will host a poolside dinner party with fun contests and prizes. We will also have a special concert by Honduras musician Luis Nieto, former director of the Honduras National Band. On Saturday, sponsor Omnibond will host the Geeko Luau Jam. We'll have a Hawaiian themed dinner party with a Polynesian dance act. Afterward, we will host a Geeko Jam Session where attendees are invited to bring their favorite musical instruments and rock the roof off in a jam session. - Registering for openSUSE Summit also gives you free admission to the final day of SUSECon on Friday where you will be able to access the Technology Showcase and Closing Keynotes from several industry leaders. We hope all of you can join us for what promises to be an informative and exciting weekend. Sincerely, Bryen M Yunashko openSUSE Summit Co-Chair --------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive http://marc.info/?l=jaxlug-list&r=1&w=2 RSS Feed http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.xml Unsubscribe [email protected]
