Awesome work Jethro. Wicked.

Some suggestions:
hyperlink your name to your CV. Take advantage of this event - you've
worked hard on this - well done.

Minor Points:
typos:
Email Address:* (Note:You registration details...) -should be 'Your'.
Debain Linux (Debian)

Need to get confirmation from the Install Guys on preso timing - based
on my last email...

I understand that it is my responsability to backup my data,
(responsibility) - ditto for the next 'system' section

"..I have a unsupported modem.."  - we haven't defined what supported is
(or at least haven't told the punters on the webpage) - maybe we should
do this.

Under Distro wanted - can you mention that the LiveCD's Knoppix and
PCLinuxOS will be available.

Change the homepage so 'InstallFest2004' REALLY stands out.

I know you are still working on it, but make sure that the 'where, when,
registration' stuff is at the top of the page.

Rather than saying "If you do not register, you will not have a place
confimed, and if there is an overload of people, only people who have
registered may be allowed in." Say - " only people who have registered
will get priority".

Nag Nag - where's the logo?
