Pictures
Several people have asked me to post my pictures from Linux-Kongress. Here they are, even the bad ones. (Still learning how to use my camera...)
I will also link to Jean-Luc Cooke's LK2003 pictures, since they are more plentiful and generally better than mine.
My notes from the conference are in my NITLog, hereish.
