I'm going to second everything Matti said. As we've said before, this is a *really* good conference. It's community driven and it's for the community. It is by no means as commercialized as some of the other conferences (Linuxworld, ITExpo, etc.). I believe that's one of the huge factors that set it apart. See ya there - <br>

<br>Hi!<br><br>1) Reminder, this weekend is SCALE,<br>the southern california linux expo.<br><br>I've covered a number of conferences<br>in the past, and THIS is ONE which<br>everyone interested in linux related<br>topics in the greater LA area SHOULD<br>
attend imho.<br><br>It is the best deal you will find for<br>for any expo/conference I have been to.<br>( ok, there are a handful like this,<br>conferences put together FOR US,<br>for the linux user community. This is<br>
a community event! So please remember<br>to help where you can. )<br><br>2) $70 gets you a "full conference pass"<br>good sat-sun.<br><br>Fri sessions are $10 more,<br>If you want the training on friday, it's<br>
listed under "university" and is $300<br>(includes Sat-Sun)<br><br>The sessions Fri-Sat-Sun are obviously<br>a good deal, and you can save more with<br>a lug user group discount...<br>(iirc lug discount makes it 1/2 price... )<br>
<br>Register with the code SGVLG to get<br>a discount.<br><br><a href="http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/" target="_blank">http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/</a><br><br>3) Carpooling??<br><br>I'm guessing that the conference should be very<br>
busy, and parking will probably cost a bit also, so...<br><br>Does anyone want to carpool???<br><br>4) Oh, and remember - since the price of the event<br>is such a good deal, you will need to fend for<br>yourself for food. (i.e. if you're on a budget<br>
pack lunch.. if want to help SCALE out they may<br>still be looking for volunteers... please see the<br>pass announcement by Gareth. )<br><br>Hope to see you there!<br><font color="#888888">matti<br></font><div class="WgoR0d">
