Live from OSCON 2005 in Portland, Oregon

Bob Thomas (the publisher of EOSJ) and I arrived in Portland, Oregon, today for the O'Reilly Open Source Convention (OSCON 2005). We will be at the convention center on Tuesday for meetings and booth setup. On Wednesday and Thursday, we will be at the EOSJ booth in the exhibit hall. We were able to register today and get a preview of things to come this week. Every attendee backpack includes the inaugural issue of EOSJ and we will be handing out additional copies at the EOSJ booth on Wednesday and Thursday.

This is an exciting week for EOSJ! We attended OSBC in April, but the inaugural issue had not yet been printed. This is our first tradeshow with magazines in hand. We are looking forward to meeting face to face with members of the open source community at OSCON 2005 and getting feedback.

The Open Source Update newsletter on Thursday will include announcements from OSCON 2005. Stay tuned...
