LinuxWorld photos August 8, San Jose LinuxWorld has a fairly high profile in San Jose this time around. Here's a couple of items encountered while wandering around downtown in a failed search for an open sushi restaurant: San Jose welcomes us, along with the water polo team. Linux.com on a streetlight banner. Monday, August 9 System admin tutorial day. Liz teaching. Jon's turn. The exhibit hall (still closed) is still very much under construction. Consistent with IDG's claims, it is somewhat larger this time around. Some of that space appears to have gone to larger booths (a number of exhibitors apparently have classroom areas, for example), rather than to more exhibitors.
