LinuxFest fosters ingenuity, software, robotics

,----[ Quote ]
| It was during  LinuxFest Northwest 2010,
| and it took place April 24 and 25.
|
| Bill Wright, director of LinuxFest
| Northwest, said this was the 11th festival.
| The Bellingham Linux Users Group started
| the festival after the dot-com crash of the
| â90s, when the software community was
| disjointed.
|
| The goal was to create an event that would
| allow the Linux community to meet in
| person, he said.
|
| Another goal was to show people what Linux
| is, Wright said.
