I have now placed the timetable for this event onto the website. [...] If you're thinking of attending but haven't placed your booking yet, please would you do so ASAP? We have to finalise numbers with the venue rather early this year - first thing on Thursday this week (June 15th) - so later bookings may miss out on food and accommodation:-(

Also, if you know of any people who might be interested in the free introductory talks on Saturday (see below), please consider inviting them - perhaps by forwarding this message to them. [...] Introductory talks: Saturday 1st July ------------------------------------- This section of the conference is aimed at people who are relatively new to linux and is free of charge. Lunch is included if you register on the website before Thursday 15th June. Programme:
