SeaGL
next →

Dates	October 24-25, 2014
Location	Seattle Central College, Seattle, WA (map)
Website	http://seagl.org/

SeaGL is a grassroots technical conference dedicated to spreading awareness and knowledge about the GNU/Linux community and free/libre/open-source software/hardware. Our goal for SeaGL is to produce an event which is as enjoyable and informative for those who spend their days maintaining hundreds of servers as it is for a student who has only just started exploring technology options.
