What to Expect at Fossetcon

Tweet

Fossetcon is not a GNU/Linux conference, nor is it a *BSD conference. Fossetcon can be more described as a *nix(Unix like) conference that focuses primarily on Free and Open Source Software and the systems that run it - whether it be hardware or software.

We are calling all FOSS, FLOSS and OSS Developers, Students, Teachers, Systems Administrators, Hardware Hackers, Enthusiasts, Newbies and Trolls(trolls need love too) to come out and participate in Fossetcon 2014 in Orlando, FL.

Cafe Matisse

Cafe Matisse - Inside the Rosen Plaza is a great buffet style restaraunt to dine at whether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner.

There are enough chairs inside for a typical lan party(lol) or perhaps just getting a good bite to eat. 

The great thing about Cafe Matisse is that the food is good and the prices are even better.
