News from PANUG/BizNix - September 19, 2003 http://panug.org - http://biznix.org ITEC SESSIONS by Ed Sawicki - Accelerated Learning Center / Tailored Computers PANUG and BizNix will be part of the ITEC show once again this year. Additionally, we're involved in the show's education content and exhibits. There will be a Linux/Open Source education track at the show, which is held on December 10-11. I'm responsible for coming up with the topics and finding speakers. The target audience is IT professions who are still fairly new to Linux and Open Source software. I'd like your opinion about the subjects that you think should be covered in these sessions. Please reply to this message if you have an opinion. We're limited to four 1-hour sessions so apologies in advance if I don't use your ideas no matter how good they are. EXHIBITS The ITEC show will have an Open Source pavilion and I'm coordinating that exhibit space. Exhibit space in the pavilion is considerably less than regular floor space. If your company, college, organization, etc. offers Linux or Open Source-related products and services and you want to have exhibit space in the pavilion, please contact me at 503-635-6370. VERTICAL MARKET APPLICATIONS by Ed Sawicki - Accelerated Learning Center / Tailored Computers If you're a programmer and are either out of work or have far less work than you need because of the economy, you may be interested in a project to produce vertical market applications that are extremely secure, are trivial to install and upgrade, and easier to support than conventional software. These will be commercial applications - not free software. If you're interested, please contact me via e-mail at ed@alcpress.com. DISCLAIMER PANUG and BizNix welcome contributions from all members.
