Hi,

A few people on this list are going to LinuxWorld, and wanted to get some of
my coupons for the trade show, Keynote addresses, Featured Presentations and
Birds of a Feather (i.e. everything but the conference itself).  It would
probably be hard for me to get them to you by the time you wish to register,
but this email that I received today will give you directions for registering
for the same things online.

I still have not had solid confirmation from IDG about a room where we could
hold a Birds of a Feather session, but I have not heard back that they do not
have one either.  I do know that if they have a room it will probably be on
Wednesday, which I heard was a bad day for people.  So it goes.
