I've learned from previous LinuxWorld cons that if you want any real technical discussion, you should restrict your visit to the .org booths. It was good to see people with cool stuff like the OLPC. That being said, it seems like LinuxWorld gets crappier every year. They gave away vouchers for those talk sessions that you normally have to pay for and I just through mine away because I knew the talks were pointless. The Linux community needs a real conference where we can discuss real technical issues. I, too, went to Defcon and to the first day of LinuxWorld.

There's bound to be someone worth interviewing so keep that camera close just in case :) This is very good to know, I always assumed that Linux World would have security people in abundance.
