The (student) Association for Computing Machinery at the University of Illinois is holding their annual Reflections/Projections conference this weekend.  It has the usual technical presentations about 3D rendering, system automation, and the like.  However, it also has a good amount of BSD content.  There’s an executive from Wind River Systems, which has had some history with FreeBSD, an OpenBSD presentation, and two cartoonists – Randall Munroe, of xkcd fame, and Phil & Kaja Foglio who create, among other things, Girl Genius.  Phil Foglio happens to be the original artist who drew the BSD daemon.
