November 6-10, 2001
Oakland, CA USA

Sponsored by USENIX and the Atlanta Linux Showcase, Inc., in 
cooperation with Linux International

Now in its fifth year, the Annual Linux Showcase & Conference 
http://www.linuxshowcase.org continues its remarkable development as 
the premier technical Linux conference, attracting  talks by experts 
on everything from kernel internals to Internet services, panels 
discussing the state of the Kernel, Linux in the real world, xfree86, 
and more.

And this year, ALS breaks with tradition by moving out of Atlanta to 
the SF Bay Area!

The ALS 2001 Program Committee invites you to contribute your ideas, 
proposals, and papers for tutorials, invited talks, refereed 
technical papers, and work-in-progress reports. We welcome 
submissions that address any and all issues relating to Linux and the 
Open Source world.

The Call for Papers with submission guidelines and suggested topics 
is now available at http://www.linuxshowcase.org

Submissions are due June 5, 2001

The first XFree86 Technical Conference will run concurrently with ALS 
on November 7 & 8. If you are a developer building applications and 
systems using XFree86, plan to submit a paper or attend this event: 
http://xfree86.org/

Please join us and participate in the premier technical conference 
for Linux enthusiasts and professionals! We look forward to seeing 
you in Oakland in November 2001!
