Spread the word . . .
The organizers of NYCBSDCon 2010 are proud to announce the final closing of the
books for the November conference at Cooper Union.
The profits are being evenly distributed among the four BSD projects--DragonFly
BSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD--with each check totaling $3600. Most of the
projects have already received their checks.
This is an enormous accomplishment for an open source conference, and signifies
the commitment of the broad range of organizers from the New York City *BSD
User Group and beyond.
The conference, the fourth one held since 2005, attracted a wide array of
attendees, in addition to generous sponsors including About.com, New York
Internet, Isilon Systems, Marvell and iXsystems.
The fiscal backing of BSD Fund, a 501(c)(3) organization, provided accounting
transparency to the conference.
The organizers would like to thank each and every participant in the
conference, from the speakers and attendees, to the sponsors and the students
and staff of Cooper Union for making the event a success.
We look forward to NYCBSDCon 2012, and hope to build on the successes of the
2010 conference.
