Open Source Award

Posted by CmdrTaco on Thursday March 05, 1998 @01:04PM from the just-dessert dept.

Sam Ockman wrote in to tell us about some more tidbits about last nights SVLUG. It seems that RedHat, O'Reily and VA Research gave out the first Open Source Award to (surprise!) Linus! Valued at $5k, it included a decked out VA Research Workstation. Sam also mentioned that 480 people attended last night. Wish I lived in CA- would have loved to have been there. Very cool stuff.
