Greetings, I'm leaving today for San Francisco to attend the conference. I'll be staying with a friend in Oakland tonight, but I'm still looking for shared accommodations near Stanford for Thursday through Saturday. Wow, four days of Linux audio immersion ! The conference looks to be quite the event, I'm looking forward to connecting with familiar friends and meeting some names that are yet faceless to me. I plan to attend many presentations and workshops, and I'll probably do a write-up for LWN afterwards. Advancing westward, dp
