Speakers

Last year, we invited many prominent members of the Linux and Open Source Community to speak at the first annual Southern California Linux Expo. Those who gave presentations at SCALE included Robert Love (Linux kernel developer, author of the preemptive kernel patch), Rasmus Lerdorf (Author of PHP), and Marc Hamilton (Director of Global Education and Research, Sun Microsystems).
