Representatives from several Linux and Unix distributions will gather and discuss with the audience about the differences and similarities of their particular distribution and why they think it is a good choice.

This roundtable a discussion of the differences between distributions and contrasting these differences to allow users to make an informed choice on what distributions they wish to try.

This is not a discussion of why one is better than another. Rather, it's a discussion around the philosophies and beliefs of each distribution and their target audiences.

This panel is designed to expose more people to the many freely available distributions of Unix and Linux.

This panel will include at least one representative from:
