We are not sponsoring the event. We are also not holding an installfest at 
the event. Initially, when this was going to be hosted at Channel 5, we 
were planning on an installfest as one of the breakout sessions. But, the 
Windows Boston group was unable to get their ducks together and the PDD was 
delayed and the venue changed. I will be giving a talk on Hardening Linux. 
Actually, Andy Suchoski and Will Beck, 2 of my coworkers have been putting 
together a fairly complete White Paper on SELinux, and Andy recently gave a 
talk at Columbia Area Linux Users Group (http://www.calug.com/) in 
Maryland. I have Andy's presentation and I am integrating it into my talk. 
His slides are very good with a lot of good graphics, and my stuff is 
usually somewhat texty. I might be able to twist Will Beck's arm to speak 
at one of our meetings next year. Both of us are contractors and we must 
take some time off between contracts at HP. Andy lives in the DC area.
