On Thursday, May 12th, in New Orleans, attendees at the Spring 1994 DECUS
(Digital Equipment Users Society) US Chapter symposium will have an opportunity
to hear 2 presentations by Linus Torvalds, the "father of the Linux operating
system". These sessions, entitled "An Introduction to Linux" and
"Implementation Issues in LINUX", are scheduled from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm. They
are being presented as a part of the week-long UNIX session stream, and will
offer a unique opportunity to hear Linus speak, outside of Scandinavia. In
addition to the two technical sessions, the UNIX SIG hopes to have a Linux
system running in the UNIX/AI SIG Campground, and hopefully we can persuade
Linus to "hang out there".

For additional information, or to register, call 1-800-DECUS55. In addition,
information is available via the Internet through DECUS' gopher client at
gopher.decus.org, via anonymous FTP at ftp.decus.org, or sending mail to
information@decus.org. If you like, you can also send mail to the Chairman of
the UNIX SIG (Kurt Reisler) at klr@umbc.edu (that's me :)

Hope to see many of you there.
