The conference will be held at Columbia University on October 11 and 12 in Manhattan. The speaker line-up is an impressive list of developers and systems administrators from all of the BSD projects. We strongly encourage everyone to register as soon as possible. Early registration is $95 and includes not just the meetings, but also breakfast and lunch for both Saturday and Sunday. Walk-ins will be charged $145. With valid current identification, the Columbia University staff, students and faculty rate is $50. Other full-time students can also receive this discounted rate with valid identification. Friday evening, attendees will be gathering at Havanna Central at 2911 Broadway between 113th and 114th streets beginning at 7 pm. That will also be the location for the Saturday night social. There are plenty of other non-presentation activities such as: * The BSD Certification Group will be holding BSDA exams. There will be general Unix review cram sessions over the course of the conference. * Live on-site reporting of the conference happenings will be provided by BSDTalk's Will Backman. * Birds of a Feather (BoF's) Any conference profits will be donated to the BSD projects, as done in years past. More information is available at the NYCBSDCon 2008 website.
