Boston Linux Conference December 3-4

This is shaping up to be a fairly important conference - at least
locally.
Sorry for taking so long to get it out, but I finally excavated it from
my in-box (one of the reasons I need to resign - I'm holding up too many
things like this.)
Also, sorry for the .doc formats, but if I had to convert those, then
this would have gone out well *after* the event!
