Frequently Asked Questions

Why was the GNU Compiler Conference started?

The objective of the GNU Compiler Conference is to promote open cooperation and improve communication in the GCC & related technologies market space.

Where can I get major announcements?

We recommend that you subscribe to the GCC Summit Announcement mailing list. Traffic will be very low but all the critical announcements will be made there. Archives are here

How much will it cost?

Our goal is to keep the event community oriented and inexpensive with full time student priced at $160.50CAD and non-student full attendee at $321.00 both prices include a 7% Goods and Services Tax (GST). These work out roughly to $112.05USD/99.69EUR for student and $214.73USD/199.38EUR for full attendee.

Those presenting papers are not charged the registration fee.

Why did my credit card show 'Linux Symposium Inc.' and not 'GCC Summit'

This is because we use the same processing console for both events and have not yet registered a generic name for this. We're open to suggestions. :)
