Dear Linux Fans, My name is Andrea and for those who haven’t heard from me I am responsible of LINUX EXPO tradeshows in the Americas. SkyEvents : a team with worldwide presence at your service and organizers of 10 LINUX EXPO tradeshows. Based in Paris, Montreal and Brazil, the Sky Events teams have demonstrated their expertise in organizing many international seminars and exhibitions. For more information on us, please visit www.linux-expo.com Presently, we are analysing the possibility of doing two days conference in California. We don't know yet wich city would be more approriate. We would do a road show of two days conference per city and would do 10 cities in a year. The conference would be very technicals and non marketing. Companies would sponsor the event for the 2 days (about 5000$ to sponsor) and would have the posssibility to talk about 40 minutes per day. The entrance for this two days would be about 175 US. For this matter, we really need to have your LUG support. What we would ask you is first: your opinion on this project and second: if you agree to have your LUG sponsor the event. (By sponsor we mean link, web support, no money involved...) I really hope that you can come back to me this week. Thanks for your cooperation Andrea Director, Sky Events Amériques.
