ABLEconf 2012's keynote is "Getting Animated with Open Source" from Curtis Zinzilieta of Walt Disney Animation Studios (WDAS). Former RedHatter will cover Open Source contributions from WDAS and the business decisions behind those contributions.

ABLEconf is an annual business and technology Free Software conference from the Open Technology Educational Corportation. ABLEconf aims to show the Arizona business, non-profit, education and government communities that Free Software makes economic and business security sense.

"Getting Animated with Open Source" starts the day for ABLEconf on March 24th. Curtis Zinzilieta is a Principal Engineer at Walt Disney Animation Studios (WDAS).

His prior stints with RedHat and Dell concentrated on customer GNU/Linux installation and tuning. Curtis will also be speaking on "Discovering Performance Possibilities in Linux".
