Tanner Lovelace is interested in way too many things.  When he's not hacking on KDE to make it run natively on the Mac he can be found doing ham radio stuff, juggling, geocaching, mountain biking or making music on various instruments.  This will be his first Ohio Linux Fest and he's looking forward to seeing everything.

Mark Hinkle is the trail boss and mastermind behind the Software Freedom Road Rally. Since getting officially old he longs for the days when he and his rugby buddies piled into a big crappy van and drove around the country. As he's gotten to be a geek, he's been reduced to road tripping to open source conferences with other open source faithful. Mark is the Vice President of Community for Zenoss Inc. who makes the GPL licensed Network Management solution, Zenoss Core . 

Mark Turner eats, sleeps and breathes software freedom. He has lead countless crusades to the shadowy corners of the globe in his tireless effort to free software everywhere it is being oppressed.

(In actuality, Mark works as a Client Services Engineer at Zenoss and has fun doing it.)

Matt Frye is a writer, film maker, and practitioner of the semi-ancient art of mental Kung Foo.  When not engaged in propagandic road rallies, he enjoys haning out with his family, fly fishing, martial arts movies, and ham radio.
