The programme for this conference is now available at: http://www.ukuug.org/events/linux2000/timetable.shtml

Nine of the speakers are flying to London especially for the conference, and once again several OxLUG people are playing active roles in organising the event - and two will be speaking.

The line-up includes: Miguel de Icaza (GNOME) Hans Reiser (Reiserfs) Rik van Riel (Memory Management; 2.5 kernel development) Rasterman (Performance programming for X) Stephen Tweedie (Clustering; Ext3) Wichert Akkerman (Package Management)

The event is spread over 3 days this year, and daily rates are available. A 50% discount available for students. It is necessary to be a member of the UKUUG to attend. (There is an institutional membership covering students and staff of Oxford University.)

There will be exhibitors on the Friday and Saturday. (Including O'Reilly offering a discount on their books.)
