Let's have a Fedora BoF presence at USENIX's LISA which increases sysadmin market share and brand awareness.
Contents |
Discussion
The LISA conference is the largest and the longest running system administrators conference run by the USENIX association. In order to increase attendee dialogue, Birds-of-a-Feather meetings are encouraged. Fedora has had successful BoF at this conference for at least 3 years but this is the first time we are increasing the level of organisation.
Audience
- Attendees are 95% system administrators and 5% vendors who make system administrators.
- Products used are typically *nix and the system administrators tend to prefer Free Software.
- Most conference attendees are present Wednesday morning - Friday morning.
When
Facts on scheduling
- BoF space is available Sunday - Thursday nights 7pm - 11pm at LISA.
- Most time slots are taken: Still available Tuesday at 9pm, Wednesday at 10pm or Thursday at 8:30pm
- Thursday tends to be a "vendor bof" night. Free swag and munchies are highly expected.
- For optimal attendance, the BoF should be held either Wednesday or Thursday night.

- Tentative time is Thursday at 9:30 PM - we are holding this time slot as of Sunday afternoon.
