That would be again comparing 'apples' and 'oranges '

FOSS.IN was more of a community event, with hackers, developers,
users, newbies etc.

OSI days seems more commercialized one, with vendors, providers, end
users, newbies.

But as with any event its not about the talks, speakers, schedule but
the audience, networking & hacking that happens, many who feel the
loss of event like FOSS.IN, miss it due to that.
