Haiku to Exhibit at First LugRadio Live USA

The good news following our recent presence at the SCaLE conference and the great exposure that it resulted in continues to pour in. Haiku has now been invited to have a booth at the LugRadio Live USA 2008, the first LugRadio live event to be held in the US. Needless to say, we could not refuse the irresistible offer. The event will take place in San Francisco on the weekend of April 12 and 13, at the The Metreon entertainment center located at the heart of the city (map).
LugRadio is an event that covers a range of topics about free software, Open Source, digital rights, technology and more. Combined with a compelling list of speakers, exhibitors and birds of a feather sessions, this event is said to offer what feels like a combination of a rock concert and a computer conference. To bring this unique atmosphere to San Francisco, LugRadio Live USA 2008 USA will have around 30 speakers including Miguel de Icaza and Ian Murdock, over 20 exhibitors, an eclectic range of BOF and other sessions, and the live recording of LugRadio in front of an audience.
We are happy to have been invited to LugRadio Live, and are glad that in our own small way we can help make this unique community event happen. Details about LugRadio Live 2008, our presence at the event and how to get involved have already been added to this page in the Conference area of the website. As usual, we can use a hand from anyone who would be willing to assist us organizing, setting up, and manning the booth. It sounds like this is going to be a fun event, so if you would like to hang out with us at LugRadio Live 2008, leave a comment here or contact Jorge G. Mare using this online form.

Hey, I just wanted to mention, if you guys ever want to broadcast live from any of these events...
That's a nice offer Dane. :)
I will keep it in mind, but whether we can try something like this will depend on whether we have the human resources (manning the booth does not leave a lot of time for anything else) and whether it is technically feasible (ie., do we have the required hardware? does Haiku run on it? does TT run on Haiku? do we have net access on site? can we have the required ports opened? etc.).
We'll see. :)
Hey, I just wanted to mention, if you guys ever want to broadcast live from any of these events you are attending, either just with some reports from your booth, or from your presentations to groups, BeOSRADIO is at your disposal. I can arrange to bring you up live via an Internet stream at certain times, or you can record audio files and send them over and I'll get them on for you. We can promote it in advance here and on BeOSRADIO and the BeOS/Haiku news sites, so everybody can listen in and enjoy the feeds. Just let me know if that's helpful and I'll make the arrangements with you.
