Well if details are to be concealed (yes, some of us have read TODAY's 
news that Linus Torvalds is supposed to be making a previously concealed 
appearance), then those who make decisions based on what is advertised, 
can only concede that only those who decide that the cost/benefit 
analysis of the advertised program is adequate, are wanted to attend, 
and that others are not wanted to attend.

Makes the integrity of the principles of open source, a bit dubious, 
don't you think?
