Dear friends of LinuxFest Northwest,

In the interest of public health and maintaining the traditions of LinuxFest Northwest, we have decided to forgo the event for 2021.

I understand the logic behind the decision. It hurts, however, it really hurts. LFNW has been one of the highlights of the year.
