I'd just like to add that while a limited number of talks will be
pitched at developers, you do *not* need to have any development
skills to have a good time and contribute at the same time. While
laptops and desktop computers are welcome (yes, we welcome full-sized
desktop computers if you need help fixing something!), and wifi will
be provided, they are by no means required. There are about 80
computers already in the lab for you to use. :)

There will be some games demoed, and in some cases you will be shown
how to get some Windows games working in Linux.
