The eighth European BSD conference is a great opportunity to present new ideas to the community and to meet some of the developers behind the different BSDs. — http://www.ukuug.org/events/eurobsdcon2009/
EuroBSDCon is being held at Cambridge University from September 18-20th. I can’t wait, it will be my first time to the UK. Kris Moore will be speaking on “Making FreeBSD on the Desktop a mainstream reality”, which I’ve experienced firsthand while using PC-BSD. I’m also interested in hearing about “Long Distance Wireless” at Sam Leffler’s talk and Rui Paulo’s talk on “Wireless Mesh Networks”. For a complete and more detailed list of talks, go to http://www.ukuug.org/events/eurobsdcon2009/talks/.
I will be giving PC-BSD demos on the iXsystems Invincibook, an incredibly resilient and James-friendly laptop. I’m not sure the laptop can handle the Steam Game demos I normally do, but I have a few tricks up my sleeve to keep things interesting.
