[TheUbuCon] Thank you, John Mark, Google folk, Canonical, and all UBUNTISTS, for NYC UBUCON 2007!

[Jay Sulzberger]

And thanks, John Mark, and thanks all who helped get me down to
and inside of the famous NYC GPLEX.  As far as I can tell the
powerful and extremely widespread propaganda in favor of
Canonical and Ubuntu and Google's food is all true, and my only
regret is not bringing a large sack to take home more food.

I much enjoyed my own talk, despite an even greater incoherence
that usual.  And I more enjoyed what folks on the floor had to
say, and next time I will be on the floor, and I hope even more
people speak up.

ad what I intended to talk about: Here is a partial record of the
proceedings at the 13-14 February 2007 FTC Workshop on Net
Neutrality:

At the next such regulatory workshop, I hope more free software
folk show up.  If we go and speak, often regulators, judges, and
Congress-folk learn, and sometimes this helps mightily.  Only
organized groups, and much work by volunteers, gets result.  A
post to Slashdot is not as effective as a careful letter to the
FTC, and yes, I admit the post is easier to do than the letter ;)

May we and our families survive and prosper to the next UBUCON!

oo--JS.
