The convention has tons of opportunities for holding 1 hour seminars. We would just need to figure out topics and sign up. Details can be found at www.ispcon.com, but here's what's not there yet: The fall convention runs from Sep 28 to Oct 1. It's at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, CA. Attendee registration cost is $595, but is graduated between now and September. Signups before June 1 are only $295. I don't have any information on vendor registration yet, but will gladly call them next week, and post some information at that time. -- Troy Settle Network Administrator, iPlus Internet Services http://www.i-Plus.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
