The topic will be:

  IBM and Linux: The Big Blue Penguin
 
  presented by: Roy Greenwood, IBM's Linux Impact Team

    This presentation will discuss IBM's involvement in Linux - from their
    billion dollar commitment, to their own use of over 1400 Linux servers.
    Roy will discuss how IBM is helping make Linux better: what they've done
    so far, what projects they're working on, and how they help Linux ISVs,
    BPs and customers.  He'll also talk about why IBM will never make a
    Linux distribution of its own.

    Roy Greenwood has been with IBM more than 33 years.  He has held numerous
    positions: computer operator, application programmer, instructor,
    systems engineer, headquarters staff, and for the last 3 years, he has
    been a Linux Evangelist with the Americas Linux Group.
