I am forwarding this as I asked others to do... I am not sure if you gave any free cycles or time to share ideas.... any help would be greatly appreciated.

--- Begin Message ---Please pass this to any Linux User Group or Open Source user group who is able/willing to assist.... especially CALUG. I would like to start some discussions about FOSE. We have a booth 1507, a 10’ x 10’ booth with a draped table, 2 chairs, carpeting, a waste basket, electrical service (1 quad box or power strip) and 2 wireless internet connections. FOSE is scheduled for 23-25 March at the DC Convention Center. tux.org has participated for many years with the booth being donated by the show organizers. We are fortunate to again to be able to participate. The FOSE wiki is up for sign ups. This year, though, we are looking for volunteers in three ways - to man the booth, configure demo applications and to reach out to vendors for swag - magazines, CD/DVDs, etc... I am looking to demonstrate Linux and other Open Source efforts that will help with Technology Solutions for the Business of Government (in line with FOSE's tagline). If we created a demo of a tux.org enterprise with a variety of applications that would interest business & government, I believe it would be extremely advantageous. Some sample demos could be Web (OpenID for the identity) Drupal Joomla Database MySQL Postgres CRM SugarCRM openCRX vtiger HRM OrangeHRM ERP OpenERP openBravo Healthcare PatientOS openEMR FreeMedFoms, FreeMed OpenTAPAS OpenMEDIS Security/Privacy GPG TrueCrypt OSSEC, Nessus, Snort Office/ADmin Products OpenOffice AbiWord Networking Nagios * Virtulaization XEN Virtual Box The list is huge - that is the point. The items I listed are not the only ones - simply representative. The goal is to demo things the attendees would benefit in seeing. I suggest we use the wireless connections at FOSE to reach back to the "tux.org enterprise." I am looking for volunteers who can help set things up to be professional and beneficial for attendees. his is an opportunity to learn something new. We can setup an OpenLDAP with folks in the enterprise and integrate, where possible, the various applications.
