Would a noob like me be able to attend the conference I am sure I could learn alot there and just observe.

This is an honest question I would very much enjoy learning more about the openSUSE operating system and talking face to face with other openSUSE users.

Of course; ‘noob’ is only relative, and nobody is an expert in everything.  
Attend and enjoy; for that matter, extend your stay a bit and go to  
SUSECon as well; last year’s was great!

Good luck.

I think Paul\_world10 was asking about the openSUSE Conference that is  
being held in Thessaloniki, Greece in July[1] rather than the openSUSE  
Summit that last year was held on the weekend immediately after SUSECon.

HTH.

Last year’s openSUSE Summit that was held immediately after the SUSE conference in Florida was free to attend. It only required registration. FYI.
