LugRadio Live USA 2008 brings San Francisco the unique atmosphere of LugRadio Live UK, an event that has developed a strong reputation for providing a range of topics about free software, Open Source, digital rights, technology and more, a compelling list of speakers, exhibitors and birds of a feather sessions, and wrapping it all in a unique, fun, loose, social and inclusive event, which is often described as combining the atmosphere of a rock concert and a computer conference.

LugRadio Live USA 2008 brings this unique atmosphere to the USA, with around 30 speakers, over 20 exhibitors, an eclectic range of BOF sessions, and plenty of additional sessions such as our debate discussion panel, a showcase of five minute talks, tech demos, and of course a live recording of LugRadio in front of an audience.

Any and all are welcome to come by and visit, hang out, talk about whatever. It's also a very user-centric conference with registration only running $10.

We also need any volunteers to come by and help man the booth. Even being able to commit a few hours would be a great help to the Inkscape project. Additionally we have a minor need for equipment for the booth... it's a small, informal show but we can still do with a few things like monitors or projectors (if anyone lives in the area that would be handy).

If anyone can volunteer, please let me know so that I can get them a list of all our people to get signed up.

Thanks, and hope to see people there!
