Re: [ubuntu-uk] [marketing] LINUXWORLD EXPO UK 2009 Oct 1 2009
All Looking at the Olympia website: Olympia National Hall has an event from 2nd of October, Olympia Two has events on both the 30th and 2nd. Neither of them are Linux related. The Linux Expo, as was, typically was at Earls Court in October. This show changed to CLOUD Expo Europe, at the Barbican (May 2009). The link which Alan gives links to IDG World Expo who typically run Linux World Expo in the US, although this was rebranded to OpenSource World. So unfortunately I would presume no show in Olympia in October.

They seem to have just scraped data from around the place. They even list entries for the next 3 years or so. I just called Olympia and they had no record of the event, and their website doesn't list it either:- http://www.eco.co.uk/visitors/whatson/?query=linux http://www.eco.co.uk/visitors/whatson/?show=all&month=10&year=2009 So looks to me like it's not happening.
