LinuxWorld New York: a longer name for a smaller show (Linux.com)

[Posted February 19, 2007 by ris]

Linux.com covers the LinuxWorld OpenSolutions Summit. "IDG's East Coast Linux gathering is now officially called the LinuxWorld OpenSolutions Summit (LWOSS). The inaugural 2007 version of the renamed conference was held February 14 and 15 in the conference area of the Marriott Marquis hotel in Manhattan, not in a huge convention center. Despite the longer name, it was such a cute little conference that I kept wanting to pat it on its head. But sometimes smaller is better, and in many ways this 600-person LWOSS was more fun and more informative than its larger Boston and New York predecessors."

Doesn't anyone think about these names?

LWOSS---the first thing that jumps to mind is ``loss''. Or am I just weird?
