[seul-edu] Fw: LinuxWorld Conference & Expo San Francisco

[Douglas Loss <dloss@suscom.net>]

I just got this from LinuxWorld.  Evidently they have a
different definition of "education" than we do, as everything I
see here seems to be aimed at Linux education rather than
general education using Linux, OSS, and free software.  Can
anyone corroborate or refute my guesses here?
