Hi all, Mike's suggestion of using install fest has a number of problems... 1) It's a weekend, so I'd be unlikely to be able to attend :-( 2) No set time/duration and they'll be other stuff going on. I think an evening at DeVry would better serve discussions, or even a hour down the pub/coffee shop. Important (needs to be done now - in my opinion) --- If someone could contact UoC (assuming that there's no major objections to holding it there) and get a preliminary 'OK' for the 5th May (again assuming that's a good date) then 'we' get started. If no-one has the balls to do this, give me the contact details (offline!) of the person we'd 'used' last year and I'll do it. Suggestions for speakers --- Damien Sandras - Lead developer of Ekiga. H323, Sip (and soon to be zrtp capable) softphone. Have made contact, is happy with idea but we'd need to assist with travel. Renderman - Edmonton based hacker. Wireless and other stuff. Regular speaker at Hope, Defcon, etc. Jon and Gustin - Double act on Virtualisation, Zen? Roy Souther - LLUG, Seemed interested/excited at last LinuxFest to do something. Aaron - 'Our local star' (and Karaoke king). Anyone of the 'big guns' - would have to be asking now before schedules get filled! Suggestions for talks --- Asterisk - Introduction and Trix Box. I can do if no-one else better can be found ;-) Wireless Security - Renderman? Suggestions for Sponsorship --- Digium All the Distros - RedHat, SuSU, Debian, Ubuntu, etc.. Suggestions for other groups to inform/get involved --- Calgary 2600.
