and the Geek High Holy Day, Software Freedom Day.

“If you’ve been following along for the past few months, then it

fast. Beginning this coming Monday, geeks from all corners of
geekdom will descend on Portland to learn about Linux straight from
the mouths of the masters, including a beardless Bdale Garbee,
Ubuntu’s Mark Shuttleworth, and the man himself, Linus Torvalds.
They schedule also includes the obligatory sessions and seminars,
networking opportunities, discounted certification exams, a
Penguin-based bowling tournament fundraiser, and the (melo)dramatic
unmasking of the Fake Linuses Torvalds.”
