I went to Rootfest, but just for a couple of speakers. The speaker I remember the best was an open source Evangelist. He made some good points but he was preaching to the choir there. I was kind of disapointed with it in general. Alot of folks sitting in small groups, only talking with those few people they knew. But Def Con I am told is more convention like ( not like the Grass Roots Rootfest). And some very interesting topics come up at Def Con. Maybe we should get a TCLUG or TC group togther to go?

Typically, there are some good speakers there, and some interesting companies pimping their job openings. I think I'm probably going to go this year.
