Now that summer has ebbed and autumn is taking hold, our open source trade show schedule is cranking up once again. This Friday, we’re thrilled to return to Columbus for Ohio LinuxFest<\/a>. Then later in October\u00a0we’re sponsoring SeaGL 2015<\/a> in Seattle. Per usual, we’ll have lots of\u00a0fun swag and prize drawings\u00a0at both shows. Here are some more details…<\/p>\n

\"Ohio<\/a>Originally created as a way for regional LUGs to get together, Ohio LinuxFest<\/a> is now in its thirteenth\u00a0year. The conference\u00a0continues to grow\u00a0rapidly with each meeting. This year, they’re expecting well over a thousand\u00a0open source professionals and enthusiasts to attend\u00a0the expo and info sessions.<\/p>\n

This year’s keynote will be delivered by Alan Robertson, founder of the Linux-HA<\/a> project. The info sessions promise to have something for everyone. Topics run the gamut\u00a0from the basics of encryption to the management of Linux-based infrastructures. Best of all, it’s free (as in beer)!<\/p>\n

\"WorkstationTo top it off, we are donating\u00a0a nicely appointed Linux Workstation to be given away in the OLF\u00a0raffle (click the image for specs). Make sure you\u00a0buy plenty of tickets!<\/p>\n

SeaGL Conference – Oct. 23rd & 24th<\/h2>\n

Also free (as in beer) for attendees, the 2015 Seattle GNU\/Linux Conference<\/a> is now in its third year. Though comparatively new, this show has quickly built a reputation for hosting\u00a0high-quality content. This year is\u00a0definitely\u00a0no exception. Shauna Gordon-McKeon of Rapid Science<\/a> will deliver the Saturday keynote. The show will wrap up on Sunday afternoon with a presentation<\/a> by the creator of the GNU Project<\/a> and pillar of the open source community, Richard Stallman. In between those two events, there is a jam-packed schedule of informative and entertaining presentations. You’ll have trouble narrowing it down to\u00a0which ones you want to\u00a0attend!<\/p>\n

\"MicronAnd you know\u00a0Pogo will be at both shows, highlighting our new virtualization-based systems and giving away our ever-popular promotional items.
