Rootfest



Would anyone be interested in having a TCLUG table at Rootfest? Rootfest
is an annual security convention held in the Twin Cities.  This year is
their second annual and it's being held at Touchstone Energy Place at
RiverCentre, in St. Paul from June 14th through 16th.  The first annual
last summer went very well and was held at the Minneapolis Convention
Center.  Expect something along the lines of a Midwest regional Defcon.  
This year, the tickets are being sold through Ticketmaster for $51 for the
three days (also sold at the door).

According to their website, the activities at the convention include
speakers, white papers, the "Got Root?" hacking contest, Crimelabs UNIX
installfest, live music, hacking trivia contest, and other computer
security-related stuff.  Reporters and law enforcement agents will
probably be there as well. It sounds like this year will be a lot of fun
and I'll be taking off at least a couple days of work for it.  I'm sure
TCLUG would be welcomed there.  It's http://www.rootfest.org.
