Ubuntu Live - Where Else Could You Meet Minds Like These, in One Place, at
One Time?

Ubuntu Live, coming to Portland July 22-24, will be the largest ever
gathering of the Ubuntu community--users, contributors and partners, as
well as those curious about this amazing open source platform. Central to
the conference, co-produced by O'Reilly Media and Canonical Ltd., is a
roster of keynotes and speakers designed to dazzle, demystify, instruct
and inspire--and to share sucessful stories and cautionary tales from the
trenches.
