For people who can't pay for an OSCON pass or get time off work,
 there's plenty they can do for free, by registering for a free "Expo
 Hall" pass. The Tuesday night event includes talks by Mark
 Shuttleworth and Damian Conway. OSCamp is two rooms of talks running
 at the same time as the rest of the conference and open to all. The
 BOFs each night are open sessions from a number of different open
 source projects. And Larry Wall's annual "State of the Onion"
 will be on Thursday night.
