Extremely busy and successful exhibition days
Linux in Automation
We had extremely busy and successful exhibition days at SPS/IPC/Drives 2006, Europe's leading exhibition for electric automation where we presented OSADL for the first time at an exhibition. The booth was part of the "Linux in Automation" initiative organized by the LIVE Linux Verband. Thank you, Sabine, for doing such a wonderful job!

Always crowdy
Most of the time, it was very crowdy at the OSADL booth, and we all were very busy to explain to our visitors why it is such a good idea to become an OSADL member.

Behind the curtain
We had, of course, access to the Internet at our booth, and from time to time someone was digging into the chaos of our "machine room" to check email or do whatever other important work. And even in the greatest chaos, someone was always smiling...

Virtualization at kernel level
Here, the newest and greatest kernel feature is demonstrated, explained and discussed: Virtualization similar to Xen, VMware® etc. - but at kernel level! An old dream of the machine industry finally becomes true.
