in a few words....
About LinuxAsia 2006:-
LinuxAsia Conference and Expo has been held in New Delhi annually
since 2004. In our third year this time, we are proud that LinuxAsia
has become an essential platform for decision makers, managers,
technologists and analysts from industry and government to learn,
network and interact with global and Indian open source peers and
players.
The Venue is India Habitat Centre really one of the coolest places
in Delhi.

You can find more info abt speakers on the website

According to me it's the best opportunity to see all these
people under one roof really hard even to see these people. I have
like spent many days to just get in contact to some of these people.
So, people grab the opportunity when it comes guys !!!
Now, to the main part
basically there are many things happening so logging on to the
website and spending 2-3
hours is like ideal thing.
Well, there are quite a lot of passes available for the event
the best one is this
Technology Pass
DAYS (Feb 8 - Feb 10) of unlimited access to keynotes, Technology
Sessions, Linux Developer
Camp, Ruby Workshops, Fedora Day, IBM LinuxFest, Novell Workshop,
LFY Awards and Expo. Lunch
and tea/coffee included.
Rs 375
it covers most of the events but there are also extra workshops
which you can attend to @
some extra cost but it's otherwise it's ok.
The planned expenditure for this trip would be somewhat like this...
Event Cost 375+ (extra) workshops if you want to !
MUMBAI-DELHI 1000 return (nothing available from pune)
train cost
Stay Cost 500 (approx)
dinner (extra whatever)
misc (whatever)
So, ideally as i see it one shld be ready for 2500Rs. I think it
like totally worth coz it's
3 day cost and then one would have to go out of country to attend
such things, so people
grab the opportunity
if anyone is interested immediately call or email me
