Keynote presentation: Bill Kendrick, New Breed Software - Tux Paint, Technically

Tux Paint is an Open Source, multi-platform drawing program for young children. It includes numerous graphical effects ("Magic" tools), has been localized to nearly 60 languages, and ported from Linux to Windows, Mac OS X, BeOS, BSD and Solaris. Bill will provide a very brief overview of Tux Paint, and then discuss some of the technical and project-management aspects of the project.

Bill Kendrick is lead developer of Tux Paint. He has been writing games for Unix and Linux since 1997.
