For the first time the .org pavillion will be by invite only. Please email the following person and tell him you want TLLTS to be invited:
Christian_Montminy@idg.com
Benefits of getting a booth:
- you can come on by and hang with us
- increase awareness of TLLTS in the F/OSS community
- we'll get more contacts and have better guests in the coming year
- you'll get 3 days of shows, we won't stream live but will release daily shows
- we'll have some kind of swag to give to you

shopRatt's email:
"I am sending you this because I would like to see the
Linux Linc Tech Show (http://www.tllts.org) get an invite to
the .org pavilion at Linux World Boston this year. I
have several reasons for my request:
1. At this time last year, I was a Windows user. One
of the major reasons that in the last year I have
wiped out my Windows partition is because of the Linux
Link Tech Show. They have had many of the most popular
names in Open Source on their show, and have had many
product reviews (Linux only)that I respect as well.
2. I believe that their show is pretty popular and
will increase traffic to that area of the expo. They
have not done many meet-ups and this would be an
excuse for many of their listeners - like me - to come
out and see them.
3. By having their show at Linux World, it would give
increased exposure to their show, and would in turn,
give more podcast listeners access to Linux Talk
Radio."
Thanks for sending this!

Thanks to everyone who sent an email to the people at IDG. Your support definitely made a difference. We've got lots of planning to do before the show in April. If you do attend the LWE please come on by our booth and hang out with us. We're looking forward to meeting as many of our listeners as possible. Maybe we could meetup one evening after the show for a beer or two. There's no shortage of places to hang out in Boston!
