Some say that you no longer have to travel to Ohio to attend The Linux Foundation Annual Conference, or to Los Angeles for S-CaLE to get good quality FOSS (Free Open Source Software) entertainment, as it's now being brought back to the southeast.

Additionally, and unlike most other Linux conferences, this one is even free!

There's also an exhibit hall with a good mix of community projects and open source companies.

You can find out more and register at http://southeastlinuxfest.org.

If you're on the east coast, particularly southern or central, or if you just want to witness the return of Linux in the GNU/South, don’t miss the SouthEast LinuxFest.

The SouthEast LinuxFest is a community event for anyone who wants to learn more about Linux and Free & Open Source software. It is part educational conference, part social gathering...

Like Linux itself, it's shared with other attendees of the Linux community and of all skill levels to effectively communicate ideas, tips, short cuts and to benefit all who use Linux.
