Impressions from LinuxWorld
===========================

:Description:
    The LinuxWorld Conference & Expo ended yesterday. Sadly, I could only
    attend 2 afternoons, since I have to study right now and didn't want to
    miss some of my first lectures. Stefan N. and Aaron Wormus maintained the
    PEAR booth most of the time.

The `LinuxWorld Conference & Expo`__ ended yesterday. Sadly, I could only
attend 2 afternoons, since I have to study right now and didn't want to miss
some of my first lectures. `Stefan N.`__ and `Aaron Wormus`__ maintained the
PEAR booth most of the time.

In general, the LinuxWorld is a fair like Systems or CeBit, also it's much
smaller and Linux focused. In contrast to the Linuxtag in Karlsruhe it's much
much more sales oriented and not so geek. There were several open source'ers
presenting their projects (the usual suspects like Debian, KDE and Co.), but
the base of exhibitors were companies like IBM and Red Hat. I think this is
natural, since Frankfurt is one of the business capitals in Germany.

Nevertheless, it's been a nice fair from my point of view and in the time I
was there we had some very interessted people there which will propably start
using PEAR and could fix some problems people had. Thanks to Aaron and Stefan
for their work at the booth! :)

**Update**: Aaron gave me his photos and I uploaded them to my `gallery`__.
