Come join the CSC in celebrating the new releases of Ubuntu Linux, Free BSD +and Open BSD, and get a hand installing one of them on your own system. +

This is an event to celebrate the releases of new versions of Ubuntu Linux, +OpenBSD, and FreeBSD. CDs will be available and everyone is invited to bring +their PC or laptop to get help installing any of these Free operating +systems. Knowledgeable CSC members will be available to help with any +installation troubles, or to troubleshooting any existing problems that +users may have. +

This event will also promote gaming on Linux, as well as +FLOSS (Free/Libre and Open Source Software) in general. We may also have a +special guest (Ian Darwin, of OpenBSD and OpenMoko fame). +

This talk will survey concepts, techniques, and languages for functional programming from both historical and contemporary perspectives, with reference to Lisp, Scheme, ML, Haskell, and Erlang.

The conference is modeled after TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design), an +annual conference uniting the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers, +and like TED, each speaker is given 18 minutes to give the talk of their +lives. +

Specifically for students in CS/Math, 50 tickets have been +reserved (non-students: $500). For those who would like to attend, +please pick up your ticket in the Computer Science Club office. The tickets are +limited and they are first come first serve. +
