| The Linux-Kongress is traditionally where

Can DOD's stance on open source change the status quo?

,----[ Quote ]
| âThe fact that our own Department of 
| Defense is recommending open source and 
| Linux is huge,â wrote another commenter. 
| âEven they realize the tremendous benefits 
| of open source. Personally, I have 
| migrated away from Microsoft years ago, 
| and I couldn't be happier. Not only is 
| Linux much more secure than Windows, but 
| it doesn't have all of the maintenance 
| headaches of Windows (removing spyware, 
| viruses, having your personal information 
| stolen, etc).â

Forget Congress, It's Time for a Kongress

,----[ Quote ]
| Since 1994, the Linux Kongress has been held annually in Germany, with the
| occasional detour to other lovely European locales. In 2008, Linux
| Kongress-goers visited the ancient and beautiful city of Hamburg, and
| apparently liked it so much they didn't want to go home â conference
| organizers have again chosen Hamburg as the site of the Linux Kongress, to be
| held September 22 - 25, 2009. Speaking of organizers, the conference is again
| being orchestrated by the German Unix User Group. OSDevCon, the OpenSolaris
| Developer Conference, will also be held in Hamburg, concurrent with the
| Kongress.

Linux Kongress 2008

,----[ Quote ]
| At the recent 2008 Linux conference, big names in the world of Linux
| presented current and future developments. Samba developers now want to
| combine the code for Samba 3 and 4, which until now have been developed
| separately. In future, HA and cluster developers want to bundle their efforts
| on specific modules. Dirk Hohndel showed off a netbook that boots up Linux in
| five seconds and in his keynote speech, he called on developers to orient
| themselves more toward the needs of users.
