Well. This is much more then a LUG meeting. A "work shop" is usually a
class-room-like atmosphere. So neither of those are it. I think a "trade
show" is usually a bit more technical and task-oriented then this. So let us
rule out those three, leaving conference and symposium.
My dictionary defines a "symposium" first as a "conference", so I'm not sure
of the distinction Linux Events is making. But given the entomology of
symposium as Latin for "drinking party", I vote we go with that. ;-)
