We know that many of you have been impacted by the economic downturn and, due to the recent tragedy, are reluctant to travel. To encourage your attendance at ALS '01, the USENIX Association and the Atlanta Linux Showcase, Inc. are now offering FREE technical session registrations to those wishing to attend this exceptional event.

We are making this extraordinary offer because we believe the networking opportunities and high-caliber technical content at ALS provide an important service to the general open source community and to our membership. In addition, the invited talks track at ALS '01 reflects several political issues currently facing the open source community such as DMCA, SSSCA, copyrights, and software patents. These are important issues which we feel should not be put off for discussion at a later time.

ALS '01 will continue its tradition as the only truly technical conference for the open source community, providing an important forum for discussion, both political and technical — and bringing the community together to have some fun!

USENIX is dedicated to sponsoring conferences that serve the needs of our members and will continue to choose the course that most benefits the community in the long term.

We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you in Oakland!
