Thank you jon for the suggestion. I'll consider it (and/or try to talk
someone else here into submitting a proposal). I have fond memories of
the last time I went there and certainly there's been so many
inspiring talks there over the years- I remember especially well the
one on the "open source pancreas".

In other news, this new conference looks very interesting. Bruce
Perens now works for oss.capital:

Regrettably it's $1000, but where it's at in SF is an awesome place to
sit outside and busk. I'll put a couple of the "Bufferbloat and
Beyond" books out front and bring my guitar.

Amazing list of speakers... Only two of whom I've ever heard of.
Anybody here remember that redhat gave 500 shares of stock to nearly
every linux developer that wanted it when they IPO'd in 99?
