Who all are going to speak at LinuxAsia 2007?
*********************************************
Klaus Knopper (Knoppix), Brian Behlendorf (Apache and CollabNet), Dr
Negroponte (one-laptop-per-child programme), are some of the
international technology Gurus who have confirmed. We expect 3-4 more
global luminaries to be there--their confirmation is in progress.
Any facilities for out-station delegates?

We have tied up with 'hospitality partners' who can assist you in
getting best deals for travel and stay. If you need this support, simply
select that option while registering.
What is LinuxAsia trying to achieve this year?
**********************************************
The goals that have been laid down for LinuxAsia 07 are:
Goal #1: Promote open source driven innovation so that India can
showcase a minimum of 20 globally recognised OSS projects at LinuxAsia 2008.
Goal #2: Accelerate the adoption of Linux and open source software by
highlighting their advantages, sharing success stories, and discussing
strategies on how CXOs can gain advantage from both "open source" and
"proprietary" worlds.
Goal #3: To provide a platform where other organisations with
OSS-related agendas can hold their own sub-events and network with the
entire community.
So, we request you to register, participate, and let us know how we
fared in achieving those goals.
Cheers!
Team, LinuxAsia
