BSDCan is an enormously successful grass-roots style
conference. It brings together a great mix of *BSD developers and
users for a nice blend of both developer-centric and user-centric
presentations, food, and activities.
Please follow the instructions for submitting
a proposal to BSDCan 2009.
BSDCan 2009 will be held 8-9 May 2009, in Ottawa. We are now
