Although I'm a web developer, I've only NOW started to use a feed reader - liferea - for all my news updates. Previously I would, on my own time, check out different websites for updates, often missing some pretty critical or interesting updates in the Linux world.

But now I'm using Liferea and I feel sane.

What has recently frustrated me though, is how I didn't know about Gran Canaria Desktop Summit (http://www.grancanariadesktopsummit.org/) (July 3rd to 11th, 2009) or Linux Symposium 2009 (http://www.linuxsymposium.org/2009/) (July 13th to 17th, 2009), especially that Linux Symposium is only a 6 hour drive from where I live...

So I'm asking everyone: Is there any RSS/Atom feed for Linux/FOSS conferences that I should know about? Linux Symposium allowed you to purchase a ticket in March and I didn't know about it until it started yesterday, so this would be really useful.

fossevents.org (http://fossevents.org/) was newly started (http://www.lczajkowski.com/2009/07/05/foss-events/), and may be useful in the near future.
