[NYCBSDCon] Con Theme Description, (for prospective speakers)

[Isaac (.ike) Levy]

Hi All,

While prepping to reach out to some NetBSD folks, I wrote this up- I'd 
love some collective OK on it.  (I'd also love any 
thoughts/input/direction.)

Best,
.ike

A moment to describe the theme of NYC*BSDCON this year, "The BSDs in 
Production".

Intended Audience (for Speakers):
Along with bringing the BSD community together, this conference aims to 
reach out beyond the *BSD community.  We aim to expose the richness, 
maturity, clarity, and influential nature of BSD UNIX to a wider 
technical audience.  This is not manifest as pandering to 'convert' 
Linux users, but instead, to set a tone and example which simply 
exposes the greatness of the BSD family of operating systems.

The expected audience may be comprised of Linux and Solaris veterans, 
as well as *BSD people, OS Users and Developers alike.  With that, it's 
important to keep in mind that your presentation will be heard by 
technical people who may never have actually used BSD UNIX, or at least 
not recently.
