I quickly ran through their tracks and classified as NON F/OSS (things like
C#, Adobe Products, VB, Java), thing that are NEUTRAL (things like agile,
design patterns, etc) and F/OSS (things like Perl, PHP, Ruby, Python, etc)

47 - NON F/OSS
27 - NEUTRAL
20 - F/OSS

Based on those numbers, I think it is a good mix of people already using
F/OSS and those that may not really be using F/OSS or have limited exposure.

That said, I was not at the last code camp so perhaps someone that was could
speak up to as what the audience was like last go around.
