LWN.net reports. “In many ways, this year’s Ottawa Linux Symposium looks much like last year’s event.
It’s in the same place, with a similar schedule of seriously technical talks mostly
oriented around the kernel and GNOME. But the differences jump out after a short
time. Many companies who were here in force last year — Corel, Zero Knowledge, VA Linux — have much
reduced attendance (or zero attendance) this year. And a number of the more prominent speakers from last
year (David Miller, Alan Cox) are not around.”
