What do you call it when 1,000 beer drinkers get together for a feast? A Beerfest.
What do you call it when 1,000 Linux user and fans line up for a feast? A Linuxfest.
And this is what happened last Saturday at the Columbus Convention Center for the annual Ohio Linuxfest. It was an event that everyone seemed happy with.

Now that it's all settled down I can finally start to discuss the particulars of OLF. More than 1,000 people turned out at the Greater Columbus Convention Center (GCCC) in downtown Columbus, Ohio. Supposedly there were live penguins from the Columbus Zoo, which I happened to miss.
