Some students here were preparing an event to celebrate the birthday of
their University. These students contacted Linus Torvalds and invited
him to be the main guest of the event.

Some FreeBSD users were tempted to go. I had completely forgotten the
event, but the newspaper commented today that Linus never arrived.

No details were known, but this kind of accidents don't open new space
for "Opensource". It's also a shame because bigger local Universities
will think twice before inviting him.

cheers,

     Pedro.
