OSIE at the Linux Expo in September ?
Just received a note about this from another list - do you think it would be worth aiming at a 'proper' full launch of OSIE at this (or another) EXPO ? This one is in September - so we should have a reasonable amount of stuff on the go by then ... (hopefully) ? Just a thought ... The website in question is : http://www.linuxexpobirmingham.com/EN/home They have a .org pavillion for associations and LUGs, so we could apply and not have to pay for a stand. The link for 'associates' etc is : http://www.linuxexpobirmingham.com/EN/associations_lug/ (There is also the Linux EXPO in London too - but this is a different one, and I don't know if they are doing .org stands or not or know the dates ...)

hi all if you are thinking of launching at Linux Expo, Richard Ibbotson at ShefLug mentioned that he had a stand etc etc not a bad idea, but as with many expo's, the organisations (rather than commercial ones) can look a bit downmarket. Big commitment, especially when you are really preaching to the converted. i have been talking to EMAP since BETT in January about an open source prescence, with a 'village' concept to keep the costs down. Thats the right audience. Malcolm On Wednesday 21 March 2001 09:28, kevin.taylor@powerconv.alstom.com wrote:
