Overview
The CE Linux Forum is a sponsor of the 2007 Ottawa Linux Symposium.
This is our third year of sponsorship, and we really enjoy participating each year. Our participation consists of several items:
- CELF hosts it's own BOF, which is open to the public
- Individual members present specific sessions at the event
- CELF members often lead or participate in BOFs
- CELF gives out prizes donated by member companies at the final keynote session of the symposium.
