Whether it's the humor expressed in the topics of so many of our speakers
or the big picture ideals inherent in the spirit of Ubuntu – "I am what I
am because of who we all are" – the appeal of this amazingly versatile
open source platform continues to grow exponentially. In creating a venue
for the exploration of Ubuntu in enterprise, education, government and
community, Ubuntu Live 2007 emphasizes the interconnectedness of the work
and the platform's accessibility for all users.
