OSCON is the must-attend gathering of the best and brightest minds in technology.

OSCON features 200 sessions covering 18 different topic areas, 40 in-depth tutorials, over 300 speakers and a variety of fun evening events including parties, Ignite, and a 5K Glow Run.

This Expo Hall Only pass gets you into the Expo Hall, sponsored sessions and tutorials, plus all the evening events and parties. View the packages and prices: http://oreil.ly/150D1po
