The Southern California Linux Expo announces plans to a 'Women In Open Source' |
| 6 |
Mini-conference. The goals of the conference are to encourage women to use |
| 7 |
technology and open source and free software, and to explore the obstacles |
| 8 |
that women face in breaking into the technology industry. The audience will |
| 9 |
be those women who may have an interest in technology, but hesitate to get |
| 10 |
into it because they believe it's a male-only club. The conference will be |
| 11 |
held in conjunction with the Fifth Annual So Cal Linux Expo, at the Westin |
| 12 |
LAX Hotel. The 'Women in Open Source' mini-conference will be held February |
| 13 |
9th. |

If you are interested in speaking, there are still speaker slots available. |
