Software Freedom Day and the Atlanta Linux Fest
Drove down to Atlanta this morning with a couple of guys from my LUG, Jas Eckard and David Nalley, to pimp the SouthEast LinuxFest. Technically, David Nalley, a Fedora Ambassador, went to speak at the event, but he helped Jas and I drum up support for SELF too. The event we went to was the Atlanta Linux Fest, a Software Freedom Day event put on by the Ubuntu Georga Loco group. The event was distro agnostic, and all about free software. I was even allowed to speak about the SouthEast LinuxFest (SELF). We handed out about 100 SELF flyers too. This was a great event that was planned in abouut 6 weeks, and had around 140 people show up. There were talks on Fedora 10, dual booting linux, lotus symphony, ssh and gpg, virtulization, and 3d gaming. Good times were had by all in attendance. A day full of free software talks, an installfest, and pizza too--what's not to like? I recorded some content for the podcast too. Many thanks go to Josh Chase, from the linuxcrypt podcast, and Nick Ali from the Ubuntu Podcast, and the Ubuntu Georgia Loco group for putting on such a wonderful Software Freedom Day/Linux Install Fest event.
