1. "what's more important – and quite unlike the proprietary world – is that free software vendors need reminding that they're stewards for people's software and ideas. And Linux is the best possible ark for bringing those ideas home." - Graham Morrison (déc. 2010, techradar.com, http://bit.ly/fkavYH )

2. Short talk (30 min.) Questions welcomed at the end or on the booth

3. Mandriva Linux Since 1998 Nice innovations Great plans (users first) Great community Great distribution Great tools but...
