[TriLUG] GeekBeacon Fest Announcement and Requests

[Samir Faci via TriLUG]

Hello everyone,

   I'm working with an Open Source community called GeekBeacon
<https://www.geekbeacon.org/>, to put together an open source conference
<https://www.gbfest.org/> taking place on February 18-19th of 2022.

I'm trying to put together a panel discussion about privacy and data
security.  We're pulling from our speakers initially but I'd love to get a
more rounded spectrum of views.

My ideal panel debates and conversations have always had conflicting views.

The last panel I had was about OSS. I had John 'Maddog' Hall and MSFT
sitting in the same space.  It's not a discussion if everyone has the same
point of view.

1.  If you are interested please come join us to our free conference, we'd
love to have you and feel free to share.
2. I was wondering if anyone had any contacts I can reach out to that focus
on data ownership and privacy.  This can be anything from Facebook to
Mastodon and everything else in between.

Thanks again,

--
