Welcome to Linuxforum 2007
Linuxforum 2007 is the 10'th Open Source conference in a row, held in
Copenhagen, Denmark. The conference is a very popular conference, and
today the largest IT-conference in the Nordic region. The conference is a low
budget and high quality running over two days around the first weekend of March 2006.
Friday March 2. is somewhat more geared towards our sponsors and exhibitors, where they can show their stuff with business oriented speakers from both Denmark and abroad in all areas concerning Linux, BSD and Open Source. Obviously there will be exhibitions Saturday too. See the program for Friday.
Saturday March 3. will be the classic Linuxforum format with technical speeches concerning Linux, BSD and Open Source, user group booths and exhibitions from many companies, exhibitor-speeches and competitions. See the program for Saturday.
Conference location
The conference will take place at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture on March 2. and 3. 2007. The address is Danneskiold-Samsøes Allé 53, 1435 Copenhagen.

create a good conference, and the ticket price can therefore be kept very
low. Tickets for saturday is 175 DKK and for both days 650 DKK.
The conference is run by a coordination group.
