After a long Friday, that included travelling Athens to Brussels, sightseeing and finally drinking beers on Delerium, I was on the “misfortune” to sleep with Christos and Vangelis (good friends of mine) with lots of snoring (I guess i was snoring too
)
Day 1 started early,waking up in 7am to prepare ourselves for the first Day of FOSDEM. We (as the fedora team) was the first one to set up a booth, which arguably was the best one for the first day
The talks started, and I was happy enough to get informed by Robert Hughes on ICC profiles management and GNOME. If all those fabulous integrations are integrated in GNOME it would certainly become a professional multimedia/art/studio platform (something that I desperately need
)
Next one was Max Spevack with his talk on Fedora Governance. The talk was an excellent presentation of how things are decided in Fedora and what sets us apart from other projects. Knowing how things work on your project and trying to resolve decision and leader problems is what keeps a project running smoothly, and Max presented that to us in his own special way! (by chalkboard, waking up and down, graphical renderings of his thoughts etc) Always glad to hear a talk from Max
“Governments are not inspiring, people and ideas are” said Max on his talk. Couldn’t agree more.
Next one was a very entertaining and kinda funny presentation on HTLM 5 by Paul Rouget. I really like the clearness of the code
Finally it was time for Fedora again with a presentation on SpaceWalk by Marcus Moeller and Sandro Mathys which started with a brilliant showcase of SpaceWalk’s feature but unfortunatelly due to time constraints we weren’t able to see any hands-on testing and deployment
Now, in the end of they day, after hours talking on communities and projects I HAVE to sleep… See ya next day! (Still can’t believe I am in FOSDEM this year too
)
