[DLC] Fwd: [LUNI] Barcamp (request for equipment)

[Kevin Reedy]

I have seen this email come across the list a few times and didn't seem too
interested. Then I looked more into what barcamp is and previous events in
other cities. Now, I am excited about it. It seems like it is a very laid
back get-together/un-conference of local geeks doing presentations similar
to DLC's tech talks. www.barcamp.org has some more information and videos
about it all. I am 95% sure that I will be attending, is anyone else from
DePaul thinking about going? I think it would be great to get a DePaul
presence there. A quick question for Samir though, why is this barcamp not
listed on the official site?
