SCALE To Host Women in Open Source Mini Conference

[Gareth J. Greenaway]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Los Angeles, CA
January 2, 2007

The Southern California Linux Expo announces plans to a 'Women In Open Source' 
Mini-conference. The goals of the conference are to encourage women to use 
technology and open source and free software, and to explore the obstacles 
that women face in breaking into the technology industry.  The audience will 
be those women who may have an interest in technology, but hesitate to get 
into it because they believe it's a male-only club.  The conference will be 
held in conjunction with the Fifth Annual So Cal Linux Expo, at the Westin 
LAX Hotel.  The 'Women in Open Source' mini-conference will be held February 
9th.

If you are interested in speaking, there are still speaker slots available.   
Contact Gareth Greenaway (gareth at socallinuxexpo.com) with your talk proposal.
