There's going to be a total of 60 booths, commercial and opensource, at OSCON 2005.

There's a lot to be said having two booths at the same convention but on thinking back at Linux world this past
FebruaryI realised that having more than one kind of group working the booth was one of the factors that made it work,
Forthat matter, last year's OSCON had guys from all over the place which I think really added to it's success too. 

There's a better opportunity for networking if we concentrate on one location rather than two.

And then of course we can really spruce up the booth by pooling our resources, remember the elephants we had hanging
overhead?
