Ontario GNU Linux Fest 2009 was a tremendous success. It was wonderful to see such a large group of F/LOSS enthusiasts engaging with each other. We had all of the animated conversations, renewed friendships, discovery of mutual interests, long-awaited reunions, and friendly, vigorous discussions that you would expect. And a lot of smiles.

Thank you to all of our attendees for making it so much fun.

The event schedule has been posted. This is a great line-up of speakers and topics!

Hi All,

Your (dis-)organizing team is in the frantic sprint to get Ontario GNU Linux Fest in order for this year. Less than two weeks to go, and our families and friends are starting to notice how much coffee we are consuming. You are going to enjoy what we have planned for you this year. We (the organizing committee) would love to take all the credit but you know better than that.

Thank you!

As always, there is no reason to put this event on if you don't attend. So thank you for registering in advance, and for enjoying the event from welcome party to wrap-up party.

Ontario GNU Linux Fest is the lead-off event for Toronto Open Source week as Proclaimed by Toronto Mayor David Miller.

From the proclamation:

WHEREAS Open Source is a philosophy and practice that is revolutionizing software development.

The Source Trunk podcast mentioned us on September 22, 2009 in episode 52: Filezilla.

In each episode of Source Trunk Dimitri gives us a little review of an open source project, tastes a beer, and plays some music.

We thank Dimitri for his support, now you should go an listen to his podcast. :)

Two fantastic keynote speakers are confirmed for Ontario GNU Linux Fest 2009. Each will entertain and delight us with their insight, their perspective and if we are lucky, perhaps even their dance moves. We have a great group of gifted speakers and our keynotes have raise the bar even further. See you at the 'Fest.

Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier
• Keynote: Musical Guide to the Future of Linux

and

Bradley M. Kuhn
• Keynote: GPLv3: Better Copyleft for Developers and Users

By adding good luck and always doing the little things.

Karlie Robinson is an entrepreneur, an Open Source enthusiast and a self-described professional busy-body. Karlie will share with us an implementation success story. She whipped a little Freedom on some students and we will get to hear about what worked in her presentation, Being Present - A Beginners Guide to FLOSS Outreach in Education.
