FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Los Angeles, CA
January 2, 2007
The Southern California Linux Expo announces plans to a 'Women In Open Source'
Mini-conference. The goals of the conference are to encourage women to use
technology and open source and free software, and to explore the obstacles
that women face in breaking into the technology industry. The audience will
be those women who may have an interest in technology, but hesitate to get
into it because they believe it's a male-only club. The conference will be
held in conjunction with the Fifth Annual So Cal Linux Expo, at the Westin
LAX Hotel. The 'Women in Open Source' mini-conference will be held February
9th.
If you are interested in speaking, there are still speaker slots available.
