SYDNEY - The darling of the open source code movement, Linux, has hit 
the big time with a local exhibition and conference set for March next 
year. 
Australian Exhibition Services (AES) said the Linux Open Source Expo 
and Conference would run in conjunction with IT 2000 and would include 
keynote speakers, plenary papers, workshops and case studies.
The exhibition will run from March 7 to 10 and the conference from 
March 8 to 9, organisers said. AES has assembled an advisory committee 
for the conference including representatives from SGI, Corel, 
Informix, Oracle and the Sydney Linux User Group.
AES said the events would promote commercial and government uses for 
the operating system and educate users.
