I'm finally in a job where I can actually go to some of this stuff and the week of USENIX I'll be in Bellevue, Washington of all places, about 5 miles from MS HQ. I wasn't too excited when I found that out. Oh well, I can't win them all, and I'm happy that I at least get to try and go when I can. I'll have to be sure to have my FreeBSD hat with me if I still get to go to ora Open Source con :-) Any other FreeBSD heads still going for the other stuff?
